“You can begin by connecting your daily efforts to they way they contribute to specific people's lives — connecting what you do with who your work serves.

“What are you good for, if your life doesn't make a single trace of contribution in the alleviation of people's misery!”

“The time to be asking tough questions about whether you can make your current job into a sustainable worklife is as early as possible. Start with a very basic question: Who can, does, or will eventually benefit from my efforts? See if you can answer with the names of actual people, not abstract groups.

A commonality I have observed, across professions, is that your contributions come into clearest view as you get closer to the beneficiaries of your work. The more you can learn about a person who directly benefits from your time and effort, the more motivation you will have to improve that person's life in the future.”
