Your ideal job / by Alexander Lyadov

Teacher Explaining the Physics of Surfing in 1970s SoCal

 

Would you communicate with your colleagues if you didn’t depend on them for a project?

Would you solve those clients’ problems without the need to earn an income?

Would you recreate your current functionality if you had the freedom to choose what to do and what not to do?

If the answer is yes, then congratulations - your work is close to ideal.

If no, you will be achieving super-performance not because of it, but in spite of it.

There will be resistance inside and outside, and therefore friction.

Some of your resource will be dissipated into eternity in vain.

The key question is Why are you doing A for B together with C?

If there is no clear answer for all involved, the discord will grow.

But before you engage others in a discussion, answer it for yourself.

Yours sincerely,

-Alexander
