Danielle — SOOOO true! I couldn’t agree more that the concept of “work” loses its conventional meaning when you are doing work that you love like crazy!!!
I love lots of stuff like crazy, but I’ll focus on one for now which is writing. And take it a step further — for me to create purpose takes a combination of what you love to do and applying that to an area that really matters to me and can make a difference in the world in an extraordinary way.
I love to write, but devoting my writing life to something that doesn’t feel earth shattering to me is empty.
But writing in a way that makes a difference in the lives of others, that contributes to my belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to create a life of meaning and purpose though — that makes me giddy!
How did you figure out what truly mattered to you?
