hmm I like this.

When I talked about manual labor I meant, in the physical terms of spending energy. You as a UX designer are spending energy and are creating something out of thin air, hence why I think it's a form of manual labor.

I do believe in a higher self and I do believe it guides us to achieve the most valuable thing for ourselves and for the people around us. If we are not working on what gives us fire, why are we willingly to waste our energy on sychophanitc lies to perpetuate our false motives?

I think you would enjoy reading this poem from a journalist that I follow, which touches on what we are talking about in such a simple and beautiful way.

When we say "Hi my name is x and I do y" we are being static, we put ourselves in a box and start believing that we are that one box.

When people ask me what I do for a living I respond by saying "I connect people by sharing their story with other people, and at the moment I am doing x".

Abstract your work, your passion and your mission, and then put a title on it that won't tie you down.
