Every so often, you come across a book, conversation or idea that changes the way you look at something you previously took for granted.
For me, one of those books was Robert Kiyosaki’s Rich Dad Poor Dad.
I first read it at a time when my thinking about work and income was still fairly conventional.
What does the word “work” mean to you?
For some people, work is simply a way to pay the bills.
For others, it’s a career, a profession or even a passion.
Interestingly, the word itself has roots in the idea of applying effort to create a result. Whether physical or mental, work is essentially energy directed towards accomplishing something.
Have you ever had that quiet, nagging feeling that something just isn’t quite right in your job?
Not bad enough to force a change…
But not right enough to ignore either.
It might be the people.
It might be the company culture.
Or maybe the work itself just doesn’t feel aligned anymore.
On paper, everything looks fine.
But underneath, something feels off.
