Episode 1712: Cal Newport explores the nuanced difference between pursuing a life’s calling and simply loving what you do. He challenges the common advice to "follow your passion," revealing how many meaningful careers are built on cultivating rare skills and deep expertise rather than chasing immediate fulfillment. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://calnewport.com/blog/2010/04/09/corrupted-callings-the-subtle-difference-between-finding-your-lifes-work-and-loving-your-life/ Quotes to ponder: "Following your passion is not just simplistic, it's also dangerous." "Compelling careers often have complex origins." "Mastery, autonomy, and purpose, not instant passion, are what make work truly fulfilling."
