Upon perusing the various definitions of the word ‘Work’ on i.word.com, I cobbled together a definition that is a succinct description of my intended meaning when I use the word:
Work: The transference of energy produced through effort, exertion and application of skill, as well as the results of such transference.
Defining ‘Work’, as the term is used here, is important because the vast majority of people (see ‘What is your work’ post) only think of ‘Work’ as the place they go for 40 or so hours a week and the things they do there.
There is so much more to ‘Work’.
Answer this:
“What kind of work do you do?”
Now answer this:
“What is your life’s work?”
Your ‘Work’ is everything that you make happen. Emphasis on YOU and MAKE. Additional emphasis on EVERYTHING.
You are your work.
