In his (brilliant) book, “Authentic Happiness,” Martin Seligman differentiates jobs vs. careers vs. callings.
A job pays your bills.
A career provides the powerful but fleeting satisfaction of job advancement.
A calling? A calling is what you live when you discover and utilize your greatest strengths in the greatest service to the world.
- Your friend in the pursuit of the happiness that ensues from discovering and giving our gifts to the world.
