Career joy.

Joy.

From Google (the previous line hyperlink)…

Joy is a profound, lasting emotion of intense happiness, contentment, and delight often arising from a sense of well-being, success, or deep spiritual purpose. Unlike fleeting pleasure, it often persists regardless of circumstances, serving as a deep, inner state of gladness.

Note, didn’t yellow-highlight the above sentence. It simply resulted from the copy/paste of the first definition.

So career joy is all of that, at work.

Pretty cool investment to get results like that.

Career teamwork.

Teamwork makes the dream work.

No person is an island.

The exception is the exception.

Our ambition drives our actions, and, inactions.

Our actions and inactions drive how others experience us.

How others experience us determines if they want to join our team, and stay on our team.

Friends, family, neighbors, colleagues, etc.

Your first, most important friend is yourself.

All of this starts with our work ethic and goals.

Whatever you want to achieve and contribute, make it helpful, important, and fun, for everyone.

Work setbacks.

They’re gonna happen.

You’ll be consistently challenged your entire life by small, medium and large challenges. Challenges you see coming, and challenges you never see coming.

#truth

Doubts and fears — versus — hopes and dreams.

Profuse, perverse, and pervasive societal norms that promote a low-standard of career vibrancy expectations.

Few if any personal, lifetime role models.

A constant conflict with reality.

Wisdom comes from experience. Experience comes from making mistakes.

You can intentionally take small, calculated risks with your leadership. If your risk ‘fails’, it’s still a success because you learned something and any ‘damage’ was small , unnoticeable, and easily corrected.

Career setbacks can diminish as you age if you embrace and cultivate a growth mindset. They can also multiply if you embrace a closed mindset.

The odds in either direction, however, seem to be influenced by architecting your personal vibrancy, with great intention.

Recovery from risks successful failures, by design, so to speak.

Remember, waiting and doing nothing are the twin siblings of self destruction.

Keep moving forward.

If your goal isn’t impossible, you’re not reaching high enough.

If anything can go wrong, it will.

Or, using your growth mindset, “If anything can go right, it will.”

Reality defined.

From Google: “Reality encompasses the totality of all facts, events, and existence, regardless of whether they are known or observed. Key synonyms include actuality, truth, existence, substance, fact, and realness.”

Work reality…

To me then, work reality is the totality of all my focus, discipline, thinking, goals, and art.

Hoping to consistently and remarkably achieve, on a lifetime average, an exceptionally vibrant, artful contribution to our world, starting with my family.
