Work as Play? Seismically Shift Your Career

ARCHITECTING Podcast - Career + Lifestyle Mentoring for Architects looking to move beyond overwhelm and make a difference through design

Living to work or working to live? If you think of work as just another 4 letter word, no wonder it feels like such a heavy lift. Overwhelm stress and burnout set in when the "have to do" parts of the day overshadow the "get to do" parts. Listen in for ways to reset and find your heart in the work.

1. Living to work means your heart is in it. You love what you do, have a growth mindset and enjoy the process of discovery. Work is play.
2. There is a difference between a job and a vocation. If you are trading time for dollars you need to seek out more opportunities to bring your purpose into the things you do.
3. Joy comes from doing meaningful work.
4. Mastery of the process only comes from iteration. Find the fun in the making and the learning and stop making the end result so precious that getting there is fraught with stress.
5. Do it messy. But do it. Chase mastery.
6. You know what you know when you know. Trust your instincts and expertise and the opportunity they give you to reallocate your time to exploring other things.

Stay Inspired,

Angela
