Doing Meaningful Work


ID-10088137 MusingsFor some in the second half of life, doing meaningful work is a priority. Still, as Susan Cramm writes for Strategy + Business, "as we get older, we put more weight on what we could lose than on what we might gain — and developing conviction to pursue our dreams becomes more difficult." That's why she recommends following some "easy-to-describe but difficult-to-practice" principles:

  1. Honor your impulses.
  2. Remain persistent.
  3. Once you have an educated guess, consider it fact, and start acting accordingly.
  4. Say yes to opportunities that come your way."

Read Susan's entire article here (including more detail about the above four principles and some inspiring examples).
