When you take the work seriously but yourself lightly

A younger colleague corrected me in front of the team and caught a real mistake. A few years ago that would have stung for days. Today I just thanked her and fixed it, and felt lighter. I take the work seriously now and myself a lot less, and honestly I've never been freer.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Holding your ego lightly, taking the work seriously and yourself less, and feeling freer for it.

If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
