Ignite your work with purpose, no matter what job you do.
In this interview, Bea Boccalandro and I discuss the importance of finding purpose in your work. It's not just a feel-good concept, but it has a significant impact on your success and well-being.
Research has shown that having a sense of purpose in your job drives productivity, engagement, and even career advancement. When you feel like you're making a meaningful contribution to the world through your work, you're more likely to enter a state of flow, make fewer mistakes, and take fewer breaks. Plus, you'll feel happier about your job overall.
But how do you find purpose in your work? It's not always easy, especially if your job is seemingly mundane or disconnected from societal causes. However, there are plenty of examples out there of people who have found purpose in unexpected places. Take Leroy, a parking lot attendant who noticed that many people had bald tires and started checking them and letting the owners know. He's now making a real difference and feels great about his work.
Finding purpose in your work is not just a nice-to-have, it's a must-have for success and well-being. Don't put too much pressure on yourself to find your one true calling in life. Instead, focus on making small contributions to others and you'll still reap the benefits of having a sense of purpose. So, start looking for ways to make a meaningful contribution through your work, no matter how small they may seem. You'll be happier, more productive, and more likely to advance in your career.
