You will find your ideal career when you strike the right balance between intuition and intellect, and learn to distinguish the call of your spirit from the often misguided urgings of your ego.
Ultimately, you must follow your heart. Listen closely and you will find that it beats in concert with the heart of all creation.
When you are truly aligned with spirit and you truly long to do meaningful work, the world is in need of whatever it is you feel you need to do.
Every dream, no matter how insignificant it may sound to others, is sacred. Give yourself to it fully and you will live with peace and purpose for the rest of your days.
Take pride in your work, whatever it may be, and you will know a deep satisfaction that remains elusive to many of those with far more “important” careers.
If you are called to be a street sweeper, sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. Sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, ‘Here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well. ’
Martin Luther King, Jr.
