[ Meaning ]
A good life is a life that has meaning. Similarly, a good career has meaning, a purpose and a goal, and, strong principles.
A simple exercise to see if our life is being lived with meaning, is to imagine our own obituary. What would we be remembered for? Hopefully not being the one who was always negative or never had anything nice to say.
With our careers, we also want to think about what impact we’re leaving behind. At our retirement parties (if anyone is having real retirement parties anymore), what are we being remembered for? Hopefully, something with meaning.
