All Labor Has Real Dignity When Done With Presence, Consciousness and Pride

All labor has real dignity when it is done with presence, consciousness (great word for us to live by!) and pride.

There is no such thing as small work—only small attention. The risk of modern work culture is not just that we work too hard (without real rest), but that we are encouraged to perform rather than produce, to signal rather than serve. 

A life of meaning, I humbly suggest, is built by those who commit to real work, practiced as craft, and repeated long enough for excellence to become mastery that becomes legacy.

My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness. You can order it now by clicking here.

I don't know whatever it is you do, but every day you walk out in the world gives you not only that opportunity, but brings with it the awesome responsibility to show up as a leader. Because leadership really isn't a title. You know my book, "The Leader Who Had No Title", you've probably read it. Leadership is less about a title and it's more about an approach, a way of being, and some of the traits of leaders without titles. They're radiant optimists in a world gone cynical. One of the things about leaders without titles, they don't see their job as a job, they see their job as a craft no matter what their work is. They understand there's dignity in all labor.
