The Search for Meaningful Work: Why it’s so Hard to Find Career Fulfillment

EPISODE SUMMARY In this episode of Chan with a Plan, Max Speaks with Mark Delaney, a Purpose and Life Mentor. During this conversation Mark discusses his journey of build his business, overcoming your past, and how to find your purpose and fulfillment in your work. QUOTES FROM MARK “Meaningfulness is something we have, and we take it to our jobs. My job is not what gives me my value and my purpose. I bring my value and purpose to my job.” “I want people to live and fully live. And if we're an eagle, I want us to fly.” “I think the earlier we get fired from something and realize, wait a second, my job is not my identity, probably the better.”   TIMESTAMPS [01:47] Mark’s story [05:24] Getting uncomfortable [11:16] Why people have a hard time finding meaningful work [16:04] Dealing with loss of job and identity [22:23] Finding your purpose [27:57] The pressure of finding the “right” job right away [34:42] Advice from Mark [36:12] One big takeaway to live a fulfilling life   RESOURCES & RELEVANT LINKS Mark Delaney on Social Media:Website Chan With A Plan Max Chan on Social Media
