Tonight at the Bar Talk, it’s about to get loud. Beyoncé might stop by — and we’re not sure who she’s bringing.
She once said that “her work is a source of confidence and personal power.”
And honestly? I feel the same.
I wouldn’t be who I am today without the people I’ve met — and let’s be clear:
Most of them, I met them… through or related to work.
Work is a relative word. It can mean many things.
But at its core, it simply means: you have a purpose.
If you’re in the service world, you know the feeling: “I helped someone today. I made someone smile.”
That alone can be deeply fulfilling.
Among young people, I often hear: “I need a break after school — definitely not ready to work yet.”
And yes, rest is important. But months of colourful travel? Does it really refill your soul?
Or does it eventually create a feeling of being… unneeded?
That’s what Beyoncé means — and I would even go a bit further:
What makes us truly happy — assuming our health is okay?
- Spending time with loved ones
- Practicing gratitude
- Taking our work seriously — because it brings meaning, service, and contribution.
