Real Job Satisfaction

     "... your inner life need not be compartmentalized into your own time, but that it can be alive and active all the time, even in the workplace. ... whether you love your job or hate it, you can be awake and aware in your work. ... job satisfaction (can mean) not a job where everything goes well and we rise quickly to the top but a job where we can grow, develop, and mature as human beings, regardless of what happens."

       Lewis Richmond: Work as a Spiritual Practice. A Practical Buddhist Approach to Inner Growth and Satisfaction on the Job. Broadway Books, NY, 1999.
