131 - How do I find purpose (at work)?

Most of us spend over a third of our time at work - until we get to retire!  Next to sleep is the part of our life that we spend the most time doing, yet often, we have no idea why we are there or what we are trying to achieve.  Yeah, we are there for the money, and that means hitting some goals, but is that enough? What makes work meaningful? What is our 'ripple on the universe'?  Without a clear understanding of why we are here, we risk mistaking what we do as our purpose and ignoring why we are doing it. This is one of the questions that regularly comes up in coaching.  In this podcast, Paul and Graham explore how coaches help people find their work purpose and how they can make work meaningful.
