Matching Passion and Purpose

If you love what you do, you’ll show up with a certain amount of vigor. And if you also feel that you’re helping other people—that they need you and depend on your contributions—your motivation to excel becomes profoundly greater. You’re targeting your efforts toward making contributions to your purpose. ⠀
⠀
Doing so will activate positive emotions such as joy, excitement, pride, inspiration, and hope, which gives you more energy. You’re paying extra attention at meetings. You’re engaging with colleagues and customers. You’re noticing the details. You’re jumping in with new ideas. You’re doing everything better.
