There is nothing wrong with falling back in love with your work, but please don't force it. Some jobs just aren't a good fit and you need to find work that aligns with your strengths and passions.

Very well put. I guess there will be exceptions to every rule. Sometimes salmon and even us need to swim against the current to get to our sweet spot. :) Hi Sue, I like how you said swimming against the ebb and flow of personal energy. Very well put.

Life is meant to be simple, but we often over complicate issues. We just need to get back to the basics and make decisions from the heart.

It's natural I guess. Sometimes people just need to be more encouraging instead of judging.

I've made this mistake plenty of times. Looking back on it I see why this was and now I try to make choices I'm only 100% invested in.

Sometimes it takes a while to find the right river, but as long as we don't give up, we will be rewarded for our efforts. That's my belief.
