Don’t quit your job. Just do it better.

I was channel surfing the TV recently and found the film “City Slickers” was just about to finish leaving me with the final scenes. I love this film for a number of reasons and I think the biggest one is the idea that, for all of us, we need to find that ONE thing that makes us who we are or defines what we need in life.
If you haven't seen the film, the plot in a nutshell is that of three friends who were unhappy with elements of their lives sign up for a ranch style holiday where they lead a herd of cattle across a couple of states with the idea that they rediscover themselves along the way.
They each have their own epiphanies and the character played by Billy Crystal does find his ONE thing. On his return, his wife asks him, "Now that you have found yourself, are you going to quit your job?" He replies, "No, I'm not going to quit my job, I'm just going to do it better."
