What do people love about the work you do?
Have you ever asked them or are you coming up with that list on your own?
Ask them.
What do you like about what I do?
This isn’t about you getting validation for what you do or feeling “awesome” about yourself (although it is an awesome side effect).
It is about you hearing what people like (maybe asking what they don’t like) and realizing where your potential talents truly lie.
Yes, you are a great developer, but your ability to lead teams and disseminate requirements is what we LOVE about what you do and how it simplifies our delivery process?
Ask and perhaps you’ll find a new path.
