The joy of work

Life’s simple pleasures are the best. Like work.

Is there really anything more rewarding than seeing something you have planted grow?

To see something that was broken, a process, a person, a career, a code and fix it. Take something that was good and work with it until it becomes great.

There’s sheer joy of grinding it out and trying to perfect stuff according to your best understanding.

The pleasure that comes from seeing collaborators grow in their responsibilities and taking pride in doing cool stuff.

I am an incredible fortunate man to be able to do what I do. Bit by bit fixing stuff and take action where needed and produce something that customers, suppliers and staff are excited about.

The next thing is now. No tomorrow.

The journey is the reward and it is today. This day counts if I let it and it can make a change for all I know.

That's why travel is a great arena to work in - it's so broken there is plenty to fix!
