How to Think About Your Job?

and be happier at work

Hello friends,

Today, I have an exciting news to share with you: Starting this week, I have just come back to teach at a university after almost three years working outside of the academic world. I believe that this role will help me achieve my mission at Dong Labs as well as my life purpose as a whole. On this occasion, I want to invite you into an essay where I contemplate on how to think (strategically) about the work that we do and the life we want to live.

Enjoy!

I am thinking about something like this for all Dong Labs members, but making it more fun to look at!

However, many people do not think strategically enough about their work life.

There are two common traps when it comes to thinking about one’s work.
