As we go through life we tend to gravitate to the activities that reciprocate the most positive feedback. As a child we might do something because we enjoy it or its fun. Then the positive feedback, an adult or peer might compliment the work and effort. Now that positive feedback becomes a loop, we do more of that activity for self-fulfillment but also because more affirmation helps us feel like we’re on the right track. As we continue on that track, our experience, knowledge and expertise becomes more narrow and focused. To the point where the skill, experience and knowledge reaches an expert, mastery level.
As humans being able to participate an exchange of these talents and skills is a social achievement. This interchange occurs mostly in the act of business transactions and is marred by its own flaws like greed and cheating. But it’s a gift, being able to recruit someone else’s talent with the money you earned from the talent you shared with someone else.
I wish “Purely Business” could mean people exchanging their skills, sharing their talents and gifts with others and the joy it brings to do so.
