Passion for work

An evening at the Royal Opera. It's amazing how many people are involved: orchestra, choir, opera singers, ballet dancers... not to mention the light engineers, make up artists and costume technicians.

But my focus is on Beautiful J. With a damaged knee ligament she is still up there performing, knowing that the ligament is only seconds from giving up completely. And it's not an average peformance; it's amazing.

That's what I call passion for a profession, commitment to an ensemble, love of art and a fighting spirit that most office employees save for emergencies only (read fire, bomb threat or flooding). If everybody had the same passion, commitment and love for their profession the world would be a different place, of that I'm sure.

So what am I going to do differently tomorrow?
