All of us are on a hero's journey...

We can easily forget, rushing from one project and deadline to the next, that our careers have much deeper meaning than can be seen from the surface. All of us are on a hero's journey and the risks go beyond the financial. That's a scary fact to contend with and one that may account for much of the busyness to begin with. “A further sign of health is that we don't become undone by fear and trembling, but we take it as a message that it's time to stop struggling and look directly at what's threatening us. ” ― Pema Chödrön, The Places that Scare You
