One of the most potent barriers to finding joy in our work is the amount of toil we endure. 

What do I mean by toil?  In any work, there are tasks you simply must do because they make everything else possible.  But too often, as senior professionals, you can spend more time on tasks well below your pay grade.  This contradicts the values you aspire to and fails to reflect your hard-won skills, knowledge, and experience.
