Questions With No Soul

Questions I get asked often:

• How many locations do you have?

• How many employees do you have?

• What was your revenue last year?

Questions people rarely ask me:

• What does your work mean to you?

• How does it feel to show up every day?

• What are your metrics of success?

The further I go on this journey the clearer it becomes that the joy I get from work has more to do with the answers to the second set of questions than the first.

(It's also much more difficult to grow something that lacks a sense of purpose. Believe me, I've tried.)
