I'm forever in pursuit and I don't even know what it is I'm chasing

-- Harold Abrahams

100-metre Olympic gold medalist, 1924
This quote was made famous by the person who played Abrahams in the OScar winning movie ‘Chariots of Fire’.

In 2009, I took up a part time teaching position. The work was fun and challenging but the money? It was great!

Similarly, in 2019 I got a writing assignment and it was for a fixed amount money. Let’s just say it was a lot- a lot more than what I was used to getting for my writing.

Midway through both that teaching assignment and writing assignment, I began to sense a feeling of .. ‘Wait, is this all there is to life and business? Money?’

Suffice to say that I left both that job and the writing assignment within a year of taking them up.

If you decide to start a business, don't do it for the money. Listen to how I learnt to find balance and harmony in my work.
