I think this means we should pursue jobs that fill our purpose.

Thank you! Especially in the USA we have been trained to not be in the moment, but to be busy. Many people are also intent on preparing for an afterlife, perpetual existence, and don’t consider the now…which may be all there is!

Another great perspective - thank you! To me, the crux of your message is “accepting what is rather than escaping into what was or what might be” despite where we find ourselves! Truly living in the moment 🙏

We spend so much of life chasing hours we think we’ll remember, but it’s usually the ordinary ones that shape us. The quiet mornings, the unremarkable routines, the unnoticed choices. Those are the hours that build character when no one is watching.

I’ve been exploring this idea in my audio Where Momentum Begins. Because momentum is rarely born in grand moments. It grows in the hours that pass without applause, the ones where you keep showing up anyway. https://open.substack.com/pub/danitherebuildproject/p/where-momentum-begins?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web

The hours no one remembers are often the hours that make you.

Always welcome inside The Rebuild Project community.
