One of the books on my shelf I return to often is 'Success Redefined - Notes To A Working Woman' by Lori Giovannoni. I bought it nearly 20 years ago, and it's one of the best books for personal inspiration I own.
Here's an excerpt about the sort of work Lori says we should be doing.....
*******
A Working Meditation:
'We each have work for which we are designed, work that we have been placed on this planet to accomplish.
Ask, pray, contemplate, and meditate on your work - what it is, what you want it to be:
... That I will have the courage to create work that fills my heart and nurtures my soul;
...That I will find satisfaction in the work I choose to do;
...That I will accept my limitations but elevate my work to my greatest ability;
...That I will consciously absorb each experience with grace;
...That I will use my unique talents in ways that bring me and those around me joy;
...That I will recognize and embrace the purpose in my work.'
*******
I know what my 'work' is....
What's yours?
Ask yourself: 'What 'work' was I meant to do?'
Which leads to: 'Is this the work I am doing?'
Because: When we're able to do the work for which we were truly designed, our lives have so much more purpose, depth, and joy.
Cheers,
Linda.
