What does it mean to do my work freely, without obeying rules I didn’t make? Heeding to what’s considered appropriate is the longstanding dilemma of my career. In the way big P (being professional) has been positioned - proper, polished, ever pleasant...and in such, devoid of passion... it just ain‘t working for me.
Being passionate means having strong emotions for, (and against something), is far from being up to code, and passion in/at work overrides any attempts to upkeep manicured public profiles, or say, deliver what’s expected. So what happens if we stop subscribing to a narrative that says we should?
