I've been feeling stuck in my career lately, but this talk was the kick in the pants I needed. Time to rediscover my "why" and vibe with my work tribe more.
I'm thrilled to hear that the keynote resonated with you and provided that spark. Rediscovering your "why" and connecting with your work tribe can truly reignite your career journey.
Finding meaning in work rather than chasing work-life balance is revolutionary. It forces you to rethink your entire career path and what truly matters.
I couldn't agree more. Discovering meaning in our work isn't just about finding a balance-it's about aligning our career with what truly resonates within us.
his idea of "collective selfishness" is mind-bending. We're all out for ourselves, but we do it best together? That's some next-level psychology right there.
I'm glad you found the analogy interesting. It's amazing how principles from early human interactions can still resonate in today's business world, isn't it?
The way he talks about work being half our life experiences - man, that's a wake-up call. If I'm spending that much time at work, I really should be getting the most out of it
I've had the experience of being the right "fit" for a company's culture. Not having all the qualifications but slotting in seamlessly to be part of the tribe. It was a pretty great feeling
Finding meaning at work is a game changer for happiness and productivity. He did a great job of explaining why it's about who we're with and why we're there, not just the job itself.
his energy was straight up contagious. I was skeptical about yet another work/purpose pep talk going in. But his fresh takes on selfishness, economic tribes, and hiring for fit won me over completely!
Interesting take on the concept of being 'qualified' for a job. It's not just about skills on paper but being the right fit. That resonates with my own experience, and it's great to hear it addressed.
I'm glad to hear that my take on the concept of being 'qualified' struck a chord with you. You're absolutely right-it's not just about skills on paper, but also about being the right fit for the role and the organization's culture. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and engage with the keynote.
Some of these ideas make me see my company in a whole new light! Like it’s not just a job I’m doing for money but a way to feel like I’m part of something bigger
Yes indeed an idea worth sharing! Truth and purpose is demonstrated in behavior. The Boeing case is a very good example of what happens when results become the dark shadow of behavior. Its also a very good example of how the growth of money markets as in manufacturing money destroyed housing mortgages. Its the results measurement that defines success. How you get there is systemically unspoken. Everybody knows the 'sound of silence.'
Absolutely! You've touched on a crucial point about the intersection of results and behavior, and how it shapes organizational dynamics. The Boeing case and the financial crisis are indeed stark reminders of the hidden costs when results overshadow ethical behavior and systemic integrity.
this talk really hit home for me. I've always felt the importance of finding meaning at work. It's not just about the tasks but the people and the purpose that make it worth doing
It's empowering to hear that I'm in my role because of who I am, not just my qualifications. Gonna walk a little taller tomorrow knowing I'm valued for my unique self 💪🏻💪🏻
Muhammad's description [at 2:01 minute] about what and why he loves his job resonated with me. When we love our workmates and our company culture it's a joy going to work.
It's incredibly rewarding to hear how Muhammad's perspective resonated with you. Loving our workmates and embracing company culture truly makes every day a joy.
Never thought about work this way before! Appreciated the stories, especially about Muhammad the ketchup salesman! They did a great job of showing how we can find joy in the who and the why
I'm delighted to hear that you enjoyed the stories, especially Muhammad the ketchup salesman's journey. Finding joy in the "who" and the "why" of our work is truly transformative. Your appreciation means a lot!
Corrie Block's TEDx talk on "Meaning at Work" is a thought-provoking and insightful discussion on the importance of finding purpose in one's career. Thumbs Up!
The story about Muhammad, the ketchup salesman, was unexpected but so powerful. It's a reminder that it's not always about the product but the people and connections we build at work. Inspiring!
I'm loving the practical approach here. It's not just feel-good fluff, but actual strategies for finding more purpose at work. Gonna try those two questions tomorrow!
Most of us would agree with him that the work we spend our lives doing should be meaningful. For some that meaning could be as simple as providing for our family's needs.
You've hit on something really important-meaning at work can come in many forms, whether it's supporting our loved ones, pursuing personal aspirations, or finding fulfillment in what we do every day. I
"Economic tribes" is a fascinating concept! He makes it sound like we could all be part of these modern-day clans, working together for mutual benefit. Kinda cool really.
I like the idea of our success being measured not by profits or productivity but in the strength of our relationships and the collective impact we have on the world around us. It's a beautiful thought but sadly that's not how businesses work. None that I've ever been a part of anyway
I completely understand where you're coming from. It's true, the traditional metrics like profits and productivity often dominate the business landscape. Yet, I believe there's a growing recognition of the profound impact strong relationships and collective purpose can have, not just on individuals but on organizational success as well.
This reminds me of that quote, "Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life." I mean, easier said than done, but I get the sentiment now more than ever.
This is a really inspiring talk! I loved the idea of reframing your workplace as an economic tribe, I can see how it would make finding meaning in your work a lot more achievable
It's all about finding that meaningful connection in what we do every day. I appreciate your support and hope you continue to find value in exploring these ideas further.
"Together on teams we provide for and protect each other". When I've been part of a team working towards meaningful goals it's been rewarding and empowering.
I'm thrilled to hear that you found the insights about business as tribes enlightening. It's truly fascinating how our professional environments often mirror the dynamics of tribes. If you have any more thoughts or questions, feel free to share them!
I never thought about work as being part of an economic tribe, but it makes sense. We're all contributing to something bigger. This talk gave me a new perspective on the collective impact of our efforts.
thankyou for the inspiring content, I'm now certain that meaningful work is essential for both professional and personal fulfilment after seeing this."
I appreciate the emphasis on personal goals aligning with our work. It's a refreshing perspective. I've been striving for a balance between personal aspirations and career growth, and this talk provided some valuable insights.
Balancing personal aspirations with career growth can be quite the journey, but it's incredibly rewarding when we find that alignment. Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment!
Ketchup is a life topper. I've met so many people who are actually passionate about Ketchup. And like anything good in life, its about the way it makes one feel. Be like Ketchup, be the best you in what you do! And a bit saucy too!
I love the analogy-being like ketchup definitely adds that extra 'saucy' touch to life! I'm glad you enjoyed the keynote, and your positivity truly made my day.
This talk is giving me major "aha!" moments. Like, why didn't anyone explain work to me like this before? Feeling inspired to make some changes in my approach to my job
It's crazy how so many of us chase titles & money thinking that'll make us feel fulfilled but really we'll still just be the same people... it really is meaning and purpose that are the answers to those feelings of wanting more
This whole time I thought something was wrong with me for not being in love with the actual work I do... Feeling mad validated that it's more about connection & purpose. Whew!
His take on work, purpose, and collective selfishness is a game-changer. 🚀 I've always believed that true success is about finding purpose and making an impact.
🔥 Dr. Corrie Block just shattered the 'work-life balance' myth in this mind-blowing TEDxTalk! 💥 His insights on the power of meaningful work and collective selfishness hit home. 🚀
The idea that we're all a little selfish at work but that's okay when we're selfish together is a game-changer. It makes sense that working in teams is the most effective form of selfishness. Great insight!
I'm thrilled that you found value in the idea of collective selfishness in teamwork. Indeed, when we align our individual goals within a team context, it not only fosters collaboration but also enhances overall productivity and success.
Yeah I agree with what he's saying, so much of our lives/time is focused around work it makes sense for us to be finding meaning within it
Finding meaning in our work can truly transform how we experience our lives.
I've been feeling stuck in my career lately, but this talk was the kick in the pants I needed. Time to rediscover my "why" and vibe with my work tribe more.
I'm thrilled to hear that the keynote resonated with you and provided that spark. Rediscovering your "why" and connecting with your work tribe can truly reignite your career journey.

The analogy of early human tribes working together as the foundation for modern businesses is fascinating.
I'm glad you found the analogy interesting. It's amazing how principles from early human interactions can still resonate in today's business world, isn't it?
I'm forwarding this to my colleagues and friends because your message deserves to be heard far and wide.
Thank you so much!
I think the tribe analogy does a really great job of reminding us that we're wired for community and collaboration.
Absolutely! I'm thrilled you resonated with the tribe analogy!
The way he talks about work being half our life experiences - man, that's a wake-up call. If I'm spending that much time at work, I really should be getting the most out of it
understanding that we're all a bit selfish but better together was a great takeaway
It's true, we each have our individual motivations, but when we come together, magic can happen.
Dr. Block offers practical advice on how individuals can create meaning in their work lives, while also highlighting the benefits of doing so.
Thank you so much for your kind words!
Man, I wish my boss would check this out. Our company culture could definitely use a shot of this "collective selfishness" stuff. Mad insights here.
Maybe sharing this talk with your boss could spark some meaningful conversations.
The stats on companies with meaningful work cultures are impressive. Definitely something to aim for.
Absolutely! 😊 Creating a meaningful work culture is indeed a journey worth embarking on.
I've had the experience of being the right "fit" for a company's culture. Not having all the qualifications but slotting in seamlessly to be part of the tribe. It was a pretty great feeling
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! That feeling of fitting in seamlessly, despite not having all the checkboxes checked, is truly special.
I agree, work isn't just about clocking in and out, it's about infusing every moment with purpose and meaning!
Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! You've captured the essence of my keynote perfectly.
