Where your talents and the needs of the world cross; there lies your vocation. — Aristotle

Where your talents and the needs of the world cross; there lies your vocation.

Author: Aristotle

Insight: You know that nagging feeling when you're good at something but it doesn't feel meaningful? This flips the script—your real calling isn't just what you're skilled at or what pays well, it's where those two actually matter to someone. The sweet spot between "I'm great at this" and "the world actually needs it" is where you stop feeling like you're faking it.
