John Hagel advises us how to be creative and passionate workers. I quote:
- no one else, no matter how wise, rich, or well intentioned, can decide how we should spend our lives.
- we will need to step off the well-trodden trail and blaze our own.
- we must never compromise growth for short term efficiencies.
- we find better ways to share and exchange knowledge.
- we don't exist for institutions, they exist for us.
- give up the corner office, fancy car or anything else of little consequence that may be holding us back from pursuing our passions.
- master the delicate art of deciding what's not most important to us and letting them go.
- no one ever regrets taking the path that leads to the better story.
- people who change the world are out at the edge of their field, pushing back the boundaries of the unknown.
- only as we continually reinvent ourselves can we start to discover and reach our full potential.
- never settle.
It's a nice list for people who have options. As for the rest of us, well, we have to make our own passions in a more subtle and less in-your-face manner.
