Ep 28. Job, Career, Hobby, and Calling + Hitting your 30s and Midlife

In this episode I share on a couple of things that have helped me make sense of things on the journey. I borrow from Elizabeth Gilbert's little work on understanding the difference between Job, Career, Hobby, and Calling. Find more here https://wangyip.medium.com/hobbies-vs-jobs-vs-careers-vs-vocation-47384dd6684c I also touch on the significance of our decades and seasons of life using some of the findings I put in this article a few years back. https://davidtensen.com/an-open-letter-to-that-frustrated-guy-around-30/ "The spiritual implications of turning thirty require no new research (although more is welcome). They’ve have been noticed and recorded for millennia. One of the ancient authorities of the Torah called the Mishnah (written 2,500 years ago) gives advice around these significant times in a man’s life:Avoth 5 22 says of our adult years: Twenties, to pursue [a livelihood]. Thirty, for strength, Forty, for understanding. Fifty, for counsel. Sixty, for sagacity. Seventy, for elderliness. Eighty, for power. Ninety, to stoop." --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/david-tensen/message
