Know What Your Job Is


I like this video for two reasons.
(1) The insight for actors is elegant and inspiring.
(2) It begs the question for the rest of us: what is the essence of your calling? For example, most people I work with don’t want to talk about audio gear, they just want confidence that I know how to use it to capture great performances.

Knowing the intrinsic value of your craft not only helps you do it well, it allows you to let go of insignificant things. Such an ability to shed distractions and focus on what’s important sounds like a good start on finding a little career fulfillment.
