About This Quote

The purpose of employment is not to make money. The purpose of employment is to gain experience in the field and in the process, learn about yourself and about the world. Some people think that in order to succeed in their careers they need to work hard and put in long hours. They feel that if they do not put in long hours then they will not be successful.

However, this is not true. The purpose of employment is learning. The more you learn about yourself and the world around you, the more you will be able to take action and make a difference when your time comes for your career to begin.
