Don Miller is good at what he does. He writes. He gets his readers to think differently about things they think about all the time. In his latest book, A Million Miles in a Thousand Years, Miller pushes the reader to really think about what it means for a person to become the main character in his or her life story and what God's role is in that. That's about as vanilla and simple as i know how to put that. But it's my day off and I don't want to spend the entire day explaining a book. You need to read it anyway. It's an inspiring thing Miller does. To get the most out of life, you need to be proactive, no matter what you're after.
Between books and speaking engagements and whatever else he does, he runs a blog. It's called Don Miller Is.
The other day he ran a post called: Knowing Your Work Style Can Help You Avoid Burnout.
I don't think I'm a grinder or a finder. I have a little Keeper in me but I'm much more of the last two (finder and theorist).
If you were to ask me what kind of worker I am, I'd tell you I'm a hard worker. A loyal worker. Someone who can think outside the box to find quick, creative solutions.
But what does that really mean? I mean, and good worker is going to be a hard, loyal, one.
Truthfully, I'm going to be a good worker no matter where I work. Always have been a good worker, always will be.
But the bottom line is that if you aren't in a good working environment for the kind of worker you are, you're probably headed for burnoutvilleburg. And right now I feel like the mayor of said town. I think my term may be ending soon. Things are in the works. My character is working on a better story.
