HBR: Job vs Vocation

Great post by Andrew J Hoffman on the HBR blog on the risky business of finding 'work that you deeply connect with'. A sample:

'a life well lived must be a creative endeavor. Whatever form that creativity takes — whether it's carpentry, building, teaching, raising a family, or writing a book — the challenge of looking within ourselves to find that creative element makes us who we are. But chances are, if we are genuinely open to the possibilities of a calling, we will find that that satisfaction will come from someplace far different from where we expected to find it.'

And a wonderful line from Thoreau to end.
