When I graduated from college, I was dead set on making positive change in the world. My passion was international development and I deeply cared about making the world a better place. That is why early in my career I went and took a job in the nonprofit sector, bright-eyed and enthusiastic for a life of helping people in the developing world. The only problem was that I was miserable. I hated my job. I hated the monotonous activities, the clerical work, the pointless meetings, and the “consensus only” culture. No matter how much I told myself that it was all for a great cause, I couldn’t help but feel trapped in an unfulfilling daily routine.
