The Purpose of Work | Tony Loyd | TEDxDuke

The way you spend your time is the way you spend your life. On average, working Americans spend 36% of our weekdays sleeping and 37% of our days at work. So, two-thirds of our weekdays are spent either asleep or at work. If you want to live a meaningful life, you have to find a way to bring meaning to your work. For the last two years, Tony Loyd has interviewed hundreds of people who found a way to make money while finding meaning. They make a dollar and a difference. Tony tells the stories of four people who found purpose in their work.”
