From ‘work’ to ‘contribution’
One has to move from ‘work’ to ‘contribution’.
Contribution is a different dimension from work.
Just working hard does not get you anywhere. Work does not automatically lead to anything. Through contribution you transform and bloom. Otherwise, what is lost is your destiny!
You realize that if you reject ‘hard work’ it leads you nowhere.
And yet it is not enough.
What is the alternative?
Contribution and commitment.
What are you to get committed to?
Commitment of you to you.
Commitment to manifest.
Commitment to contribution and value – to the good of all.
This will free you from the drudgery of ‘work’.
