66  Do You Love What You Do?

It’s a confronting question – and not just for people who hate their jobs.

You can be successful, respected, even driven… and still not love what you do.

➡️  Sometimes we outgrow a role that once lit us up.
➡️  Sometimes we get so busy doing the job, we forget what we used to love about it.
➡️  And sometimes, we’re so focused on climbing the ladder, we haven’t even checked if it’s leaning against the right wall.

But here’s the truth:

💡 Sometimes it’s not the job that needs to change – it’s your approach to it.

  Reconnect with what you do best – and find ways to use it, daily.
  When you lead from your strengths, energy returns. Fulfilment rises. Performance follows.

🎯 Try this today:

🔹 Ask yourself: What part of my job do I wish I could do more of?
Now ask: What’s one way I can make that happen this week?

👉🏼 You spend too much of your life at work to just tolerate it.
👉🏼 Small, strategic shifts can spark big change.
🔹 I help high performers reconnect with their edge – and build roles that energise them.
You become powerful when you know what makes you unique.

💡 Exceptional results aren’t guessed – they’re engineered.
Lead with your strengths. Align how you operate. Use science to drive strategy.
