What to do?

The headline sounds like abandoning hope - but in fact it is meant as the exact opposite; a very affirmative message. It's about how we put our resources to the best use - I also got a response to the same event where I got the anecdote from yesterday. According to Mr. Farber who told the anecdote as well as the following, it is so very simple:

Do what you love in the service of people who love what you do.

Now, this is a beautiful insight to start one's day on. Now, there are only two things left to do: find out whether you love what you do, and whether the people you do it for actually love what you are doing. Well, maybe three things to do - if you cannot give a positive answer to both of the previous questions, it might be a good idea to start figuring out how to turn either of the answers into a resounding Yes!
