My career scratches a few itches for me.
I truly enjoy nursing (most days/situations) but I’m also a huge introvert- so my work environment provides me with enough socialization to keep me from being a complete hermit.
I’m also paid well, (not rich by the world’s standards- but regionally, I am paid well) so that helps me tremendously in my pursuit of travel or other things I want to do.
Side note- I also find it interesting that one of the definitions of the word ‘passion’ is the sufferings of Christ.

Oh I enjoy what I do as well, the salary / benefits that come with it and it provides many things BUT it is not my passion or love. It is a tool for me to pursue those things that are.
I enjoy being challenged and I enjoy "competition" so there's that but I've always viewed work a little differently. I am not trying to climb the company ladder, that has come with the results of what I do because I do my best to remain happy, passionate and fulfilled with the things work helps provide.
Through the years it's meant being patient, passing on promotions, being bold to tell superiors I thought they were wrong and believing fully in certain processes but it's been rewarding and challenging.
