T Incorporated

Running your own race

Eric Karjaluoto from smashLAB does a great job talking about, well a lot of things, but mainly about defining success for yourself. I know I could leave Blue Flavor and probably make more money, but I love my job, and to me, that’s a lot more important than a bigger paycheck. Sure, I’d like more money, I mean, who wouldn’t? But, I’m not willing to trade enjoying my job 90% of the time for a few more dollars. I’m always amazed at people who aren’t willing to push themselves to find out what makes them happy with work and their career. Sure, maybe you don’t have the education or experience to do just what you want to be doing now, but that’s no reason to stop trying. As Eric so nicely put it, “Maybe the problem with success is that we don’t take enough time to define it for ourselves.”

About T Incorporated

T Incorporated is me, Tom Watson, online. It’s a bit of a throwback to personal websites, something I believe were, and still are, the cornerstones of the original social network: the Internet. I’ve been publishing online since 2001 but have lost much of that work to the digital dustbin. What you will find here is all that is left.
