Actually, it's far more broadly applicable. It reflects my growing recognition, after a quarter century as a career counselor, that it's foolish to spend too much time trying to pick the perfect career.
After just modest exploration, pick something, commit to becoming expert at it, and then make peace with it, recognizing that career contentment is far more likely to occur from tailoring and accessorizing a given career and then staying with it than from waiting for a more perfect career. Also, all ethically done work is worthy work. I'd go as far as saying that all ethically done work is sacred.

Indeed, some of society's least respected work--for example, ditchdigging--in my mind is more worthy of respect than are the famous entertainers so many people idolize.
