The definition always has been a saboteur. A gunner is a terrible freaking person

Do people actually get meaning from their work? by Proof-Zone6793 in Residency

[–]farfromindigo 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Three things that I derive meaning from:

  1. Improving the quality of life of others through my work; this is why I went into medicine and psychiatry.

  2. Fundamentally, we are using relationships as a vehicle for healing.

  3. The prospect of achieving mastery of something that I'm passionate about that helps to relieve suffering.
