I think a lot of us are thinking, I know what I'm good at, I know what I like to do, but I don't really know what I should do. Dharma has been called many different things. You'll find different definitions, but my grandfather called that your essence, right? We all have an essence.

And the question is, are we expressing that? And this is where I got it wrong for a lot of years, which is I always assumed that essence equals job. Essence equals job title. So my essence is to be a programmer. My essence is to be a product manager or to be a lawyer.

Those are occupations, but they're not an essence. An essence, it's deeper than that. It's I enjoy helping people. I enjoy designing things from scratch. I enjoy assembling products or growing other people's careers. And the idea is that when you can come back to that essence, it opens up a universe of possibilities because there are always multiple ways to express that essence.
