Why Rush Limbaugh Was Euphoric About Therapy "I wish I had done this 30 years ago." Rush returns and describes his therapy as a "wonderful process," "amazing," telling us "I'm so excited about what I learned and I want to tell you all about it." His euphoria about therapy is not the image that most people have of this soul-searching process. From the outside, many people think of therapy as arduous, draining and tear-jerking - a place where you go to express anger openly or experience guilt and pain - possibly to learn unfavorable things about yourself....

| "In popular usage, the term `career' is applied only to the more ambitious types of work; but, in fact, it applies to all work: it denotes a man's attitude toward his work.... It is not the degree of a man's ability that is ethically relevant in this issue, but the full, purposeful use of his ability." AYN RAND |

Job vs Career |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
"'Productive work' does not mean the blind performance of the motions of some job. It means the conscious, rational pursuit of a productive career. In popular usage, the term 'career' is applied only to the more ambitious types of work; but, in fact, it applies to all work: it denotes a man's attitude toward his work. "The difference between a career-man and a job-holder is as follows: a career-man regards his work as constant progress, as a constant upward motion from one achievement to another, higher one, driven by the constant expansion of his mind, his knowledge, his ability, his creative ingenuity, never stopping to stagnate on any level. A job-holder regards his work as a punishment imposed on him by the incomprehensible malevolence of reality or of society, which, somehow, does not let him exist without effort; so his policy is to go through the least amount of motions demanded of him by somebody and to stay put in any job or drift off to another, wherever chance, circumstances or relatives might happen to push him. "In this sense, a man of limited ability who rises by his own purposeful effort from unskilled laborer to shop-foreman, is a career-man in the proper, ethical meaning of the word -- while an intelligent man who stagnates in the role of a company president, using one-tenth of his potential ability, is a mere job-holder. And so is a parasite posturing in a job too big for his ability, It is not the degree of a man's ability that is ethically relevant in this issue, but the full, purposeful use of his ability." |
