While we work hard to make a living, it is quite different to working hard to lead a well-lived life.
17th century French mathematician Blaise Pascal said, “La chose la plus importante a toute la vie est le choix de metier: le hasard en dispose.” The choice of profession which is the most important thing in life is driven by chance.
