In this short monologue, Mel Abraham prompts viewers to confront the unspoken question of how much longer they will continue their current work. He asks them to reflect on the last three projects they agreed to and whether those decisions were driven by the pay they would receive or the impact those projects would have for others. Abraham shares that he reached a point in his career where every project he took on was chosen primarily for its financial reward, despite using the same skills and doing the same type of work he had done for years. This shift left him feeling disconnected from his purpose, realizing that the change in his motivation was not due to a desire for more money but a deeper misalignment between his work and the impact he wanted to create.
