A Life at Work - The Joy of Discovering What You Were Born to Do

"A life work is like a peacock's tail: It has many facets. As you go from one job to another, you begin to see who you are and what you might do with your life. All the jobs may contribute to that realization and therefore play a significant role. Even the dead-end jobs, the ones you suffered through, the ones that seemed to go nowhere — all of them may be redeemed at some future point when it is revealed to you what you are meant to do." Moore delineates the various colors in the peacock's tail as he discusses the calling, the movements of soul and spirit, reconciling with the past, making the most of the creative potential of chaos, feeling stuck in success, care of the soul at work, being grounded and flying high, and the daimon of work.
