You used to work for yourself.
For the name. For the reputation.
For the feeling of being important.
And there was a season when that was necessary.
You had to build. You had to prove. You had to establish.
But something has shifted.
You no longer need your work to validate you.
You want it to serve something beyond you.
Work that only serves the self
eventually becomes empty.
No matter how successful it looks.
Work that serves others
carries meaning that success can't give
and failure can't take away.
This week, name who your work serves.
Not your resume.
Not your brand.
The actual people who benefit from what you do.
When work becomes service,
it stops being a burden
and starts being a gift.
