Helen Tupper: Hello, I am Helen. 

Sarah Ellis: And I am Sarah. 

Helen Tupper: And that is the Squiggly Careers podcast, the place each week we get curious and use our dialog to show that curiosity into motion to help you in your Squiggly Profession.  And we’re borrowing brilliance from a lot of various things.  It may very well be folks, so we have completed one with Richard Feynman, a physicist; it may very well be books; it may very well be objects.  And we’re taking it in turns to guide the dialog.  So, Sarah is main us by means of her curiosity right this moment.  What are we going to be speaking about, Sarah? 

Sarah Ellis: So, right this moment we’re speaking about Ethical Ambition.  Deep, deep breath everyone, I’d say. 

Helen Tupper: Is it laborious hitting? 

Sarah Ellis: Sure, sure it’s, by Rutger Bregman.  And so, sure, it’s.  My place to begin for that is, it’s fairly confronting.  I do assume, as you undergo this, for most individuals it’s fairly confronting.  Perhaps some folks although will simply really feel actually smug.  So, in case you are doing one thing unimaginable and saving the world in each which manner, you will really feel actually good about your self.  For the remainder of us, I believe it can encourage you to ask some frightening questions.  And what I’ve tried to do right this moment is take the idea and go, “Proper, what may everyone do?”  And are you aware what, it’s a actually good learn.  Truly, it is a actually inspiring learn.  However on the similar time, I do not know, typically these individuals who have modified the world could make you additionally really feel like, “Oh, I am so far-off from that”.  However studying the e book could be very time effectively spent.  It’s a actually good e book. 

Helen Tupper: What made you purchase it, decide it up? 

Sarah Ellis: I used to be like, “Oh, I’m wondering what Ethical Ambition is”.  I recognised Rutger Bregman’s title from Humankind, which I believe I did learn a few of, however I did not ever join with it.  I’ve probably not learn it, like I could not inform you all the important thing themes.  And so, I used to be like, “Oh, I am .  I am interested by what that’s”.  And in the event you’re questioning, “What’s it?”  So, his definition of ethical ambition, so that is the place I am like, “Put together your self”, “The desire to make the world a wildly higher place.  It is the longing to make a distinction and to go away a legacy”.  And so, it’s actually formidable when it comes to what you are asking yourself, positively.  And he does have this actually good quote, which I believe that is possibly reassuring, “You do not do good issues since you’re a very good individual, you turn out to be a very good individual by doing good issues”.  So, we will all do this, proper?  It is not like a few of us are listening to this now and go, “Oh, I am a nasty individual”.  It is rather a lot about your motion. 

The e book does begin with this assertion the place he says, “A full-time profession consists of 80,000 hours, 10,000 workdays or 2,000 work weeks.  The way you spend that point is likely one of the most vital ethical choices of your life!

Helen Tupper: Okay, we have heavy. 

Sarah Ellis: Yeah, I imply, it isn’t going to get masses lighter.  It would do as I attempt to give you some actions for us all.  What’s fascinating is the true emphasis on doing.  So, you could possibly learn books like this and be like, “Oh, it’s extremely think-y and reflective”, and you have to assume actually deeply.  All of these issues could be true.  However he does put an actual emphasis on the people who find themselves superb at being morally formidable, they do take motion.  It is like, what counts is are you ready to do one thing?  And he talks about this belief-behaviour hole.  So, you already know you imagine one thing is the best factor to do, however do you behave in a manner that displays that?  And he stated a great deal of us have a lot of belief-behaviour gaps, after all you do.  Like, you could possibly say — so, you will must say some issues right here about your self the place you are like, “Oh, okay” — so, for instance, I nonetheless eat meat.  And that is a very good instance of the belief-behaviour hole of going, effectively truly, in the event you wished to do extra that was good for the world, you’ll cease consuming meat.  So, you may really feel smug about that, you do not eat meat, so there you go. 

Helen Tupper: Can I simply ask, once we’re speaking about ethical ambition, as a result of I believe it can body how I take into consideration what you are going to share, are we speaking about, like, making the world a greater place as a result of we’re not consuming meat or we’re conscious of our, I do not know, carbon footprint or the assets we’re consuming, are we speaking about that; or if that does not join with folks, does it additionally relate to love a median day at work and the way you construct relationships? 

Sarah Ellis: So, I believe he does direct folks to engaged on the world’s largest issues.  So, there’s positively that zoomed-out perspective.  And he has acquired a web site referred to as moralambition.org, the place he truly describes a few of these collective challenges, typically by a set of nations, typically they’re like a world drawback, to present some examples of issues that we may all work on.  So, issues like tax, ensuring tax is truthful.  So, these are large issues, sort of international issues.  He does, as you get into it, at the very least trace to what people can do, and that it does matter for everybody inside your individual context. 

He has this matrix of not so idealistic, idealistic, not so formidable, formidable.  And he mainly says individuals are in 4 classes.  And so, in the event you’re not so idealistic and you are not so formidable, I imply, he describes this as you are doing a bullshit job mainly.  Then you definately get into idealistic and never so formidable, you are like a passionate part-timer or possibly you are like an internet activist.  If you happen to’re formidable however not idealistic, you are a company lawyer, you are a advisor, you are in finance or tech.  Each of us have labored in each of these industries.  That is what I imply, you are like, “Okay”.  After which, he stated in the event you’re idealistic and impressive, you must have ethical ambition.  And there’s a good hyperlink to the important thing ideas within the e book, a very good Guardian article.  So, in the event you’re like, “I do not know if I wish to learn the e book but or I simply wish to get began”, I’d actually encourage you to learn the Guardian article which is free and there isn’t any paywalls, and also you do get an actual really feel for a little bit of a place to begin. 

Helen Tupper: Yeah, my preliminary ideas are, I am very open and I am very intrigued and I am wanting ahead to studying, however I’d say that almost all of individuals are sort of in in all probability what he’s phrasing as a kind of bullshit job factor.  Like, they’re in all probability not essentially consciously fascinated about a few of these world’s largest issues each day, and possibly not going to work each day going, “I am so formidable!”  They’re kind of, you already know, they’ll work.  So, I really feel somewhat bit like, “Oh, I do not know”.  The bullshit job factor, I really feel I’ve somewhat little bit of friction with that time period.  However I believe I perceive what he is making an attempt to do, which is saying, “The world is spending a variety of time at work and if we put that to work on one thing larger, it could be higher”.  So, I will maintain that in my thoughts. 

Sarah Ellis: His large argument could be, there’s a great deal of expertise being wasted fairly than effectively spent.  You realize, like, are you doing work that issues, that makes a distinction, that feels significant?  I believe your statement is a very good one, like the bulk.  The place inside that matrix is almost all of individuals, who’re in all probability a bit idealistic and a bit formidable, as a result of I believe that is the place most individuals could be?  However possibly not you and I.  I believe, in some methods, by his categorisation, you and I’d have each at instances gone within the formidable, not idealistic one.  I labored for an enormous financial institution, you labored for an enormous international tech firm, which is why, as you’re studying, it does make you assume, “Crikey!”  However he is not making an attempt to beat you up.  I’d truly say, although among the issues that I’ve picked out are intentionally provocative as a result of I am like, it is fascinating, proper, it’s an optimistic learn and he’s encouraging, and he does offer you a great deal of good examples of people that have made a distinction. 

So, I believe you will get up to now and be like, “Properly, that sounds actually daunting.  That is not doable”.  However within the e book, he does say, “The bulk of people that find yourself making truly a very important distinction begin actually small, they not often begin from scratch, and normally you are studying from different folks”.  So, it isn’t like it’s a must to create a large motion or save the world by your self or utterly re-engineer every thing.  It is usually similar to one small motion sort of results in one other.  I believe the factor that he would all the time need folks to be doing is simply doing one thing, like not being passive, being energetic fairly than passive. 

Helen Tupper: Okay, so speak to us about what we will do, some steering.  I am prepared. 

Sarah Ellis: You are prepared.  Hopefully, if nothing else, I believe it is one thing to be interested in, such as you stated, really feel actually intrigued by.  So, what may you, and I wrote in capitals, ‘DO’?  I used to be like, “Proper, crikey, what am I going to do?”  One of many phrases he does use, which can or could not reassure folks is like, “You have to demand extra of your self”.  And I used to be like, “Okay”.  I truly do assume although, since studying the e book, I’ve demanded extra of myself.  So, I imply it kind of labored.  So, I will give some examples. 

So, primary, you may volunteer.  We are able to all volunteer extra or begin volunteering in a roundabout way.  And really, what’s good about volunteering is it is good for you.  We all know there’s a great deal of analysis that we have talked about earlier than round your individual happiness, how wholesome you’re, it is actually good in your psychological well being, and clearly actually good for different folks too.  It is sort of that time, like, givers acquire extra.  You do come again to that really, this concept of getting a giving mindset.  And that volunteering may be something, and I believe it will possibly additionally serve fairly a number of completely different functions.  It may very well be a manner of you exploring one thing that in the event you do wish to do one thing completely different, volunteering is an effective way to begin understanding that world. 

So, I do assume some folks may learn this e book and go, “Proper, I wish to do one thing dramatically completely different”.  If that is you, I believe volunteering lets you get there.  Some folks, like me, will learn it and assume, “Okay, I do not wish to do one thing dramatically completely different, however I do take the purpose that I may in all probability demand extra of myself.  So, what may that appear to be?”  And it means you get to spend time with completely different folks.  And a sensible manner of constructing progress on the query is, I believe, “How can I contribute essentially the most?  The place can I volunteer my time, my abilities in a manner that is going to be actually helpful?”  As a result of I believe that is all about being helpful, fairly than essentially simply following your passions.  He is fairly anti the ‘following your passions’ assertion. 

Helen Tupper: So, I assume simply fascinated about that when it comes to volunteering instances in ways in which we may very well be helpful, issues like audio system for colleges to encourage younger folks to assume in a different way about how they enter the workforce, or serving to different companies in our ecosystem, as in different companies that wish to make careers higher for everyone, simply giving them a few of their time to assist them begin and scale their concepts and considering.  Otherwise you and I each work in trustee roles, so giving our time to different organisations which can be engaged on one thing that we’re captivated with and may contribute to, nevertheless it’s of no business profit to us.  We’re buying and selling time to assist them do what they’re making an attempt to do.  That kind of factor? 

Sarah Ellis: Yeah, completely.  And I used to be like, “Proper, okay, how would I make this actually concrete?”  As a result of I used to be like, proper, we’re going for actually fairly an enormous, zoomed-out thought right here to one thing fairly zoomed-in.  So, I gave myself a rating.  I used to be like, “Proper, if motion one is to volunteer, begin, construct, broaden your volunteering, what would I give myself out of 10 in the meanwhile when it comes to my volunteering; about how a lot of a significant contribution do I make by means of my volunteering?”  So, I gave myself a 5 out of 10.  So, I am not ranging from zero, which I believe as you undergo this, it is fairly good to recognise what you already do, earlier than you beat your self up an excessive amount of.  And to your level, I used to be like, “Properly, I do volunteer my time for some mentoring yearly by means of a programme; I do volunteer my time for 3 organisations who I imagine are making careers and work higher for everybody”.  A few of these are utterly voluntary organisations as effectively.  So, I really feel such as you’ve sort of doubled your affect maybe that manner, for a few of them are business, which I do not assume feels fairly the identical. 

However then you can begin to problem your self to go, “Proper, if I am demanding extra of myself, what else may you and I do, what else may Wonderful If do, given our mission and our ambition is to make careers higher for everybody?”  So, I do not assume it is a shock.  So, I learn this e book for the primary time in the summertime.  And we at the moment are actively exploring fairly a number of partnerships, the place we may help folks with their careers that we do not help right this moment.  And I do not know if I’d have had these conversations or been as proactive if I hadn’t learn the e book.  And I believe that is kind of the purpose.  So, that is not dramatically completely different to what you and I do right this moment, however I believe it is pushed me and nudged me to go additional. 

Helen Tupper: Heightened it.  I believe, simply given the place you began from in regards to the 80,000 hours and people metrics, I believe I’d, fairly than possibly a rating, I do like your rating, however I believe I’d even go one bit additional with that and nearly do the share of my time.  I believe I’d go to hours, hours a month or hours a yr and assume, “Properly, how do I redesign my week?”  Or if I used to be in a company, may I communicate to my supervisor?  As a result of a lot of corporations that I’ve labored in have had insurance policies the place they’ll help volunteering hours, and I might possibly attempt to lock that in and formalise it so it is turning into a part of my work. 

Sarah Ellis: Yeah, and it is kind of just like the factor, you already know some corporations do, “We’re all the time going to present 10% of our income away”.  You can be like, effectively, I am all the time going to present — as a result of the factor that is not talked about masses within the e book is like, it is also cash.  He does discuss privilege, as in in the event you’re privileged, it is usually simpler to make a few of these selections.  Definitely, traditionally, he offers some examples of people that’ve, not everybody, however some individuals who’ve completed some wonderful issues, like a whole lot and a whole lot of years in the past, they had been fairly privileged.  So, they kind of may, you already know, that they had the means to make these arguments.  However what there’s not a variety of dialogue of is like, okay, however most individuals cannot hand over a great deal of time or cash to do a lot of volunteering as a result of everyone nonetheless has mortgages to pay and hire to pay, and issues.  So, I believe your level is a very good, sensible one, since you may say, “Properly, if I do not do any of this in the meanwhile, what would one hour per week appear to be?” 

Helen Tupper: Yeah. 

Sarah Ellis: And I believe connecting that with one thing that you simply care about.  I believe this may very well be to do with work, however I do not assume it must be. 

Helen Tupper: You can do one thing with youngsters, proper? 

Sarah Ellis: Yeah, I used to be considering colleges, youngsters, volunteering for studying time.  I used to be studying in my native journal that the native meals financial institution close to the place I dwell have extra requests for meals than ever earlier than, however are 25% down year-on-year on donations.  Although they get masses, they’re nonetheless not getting sufficient to fulfill the demand.  And so, that related to me.  I’ve labored on meals waste earlier than once I labored in a grocery store, and I used to be like, “Oh, okay, I’m fairly new to this space”.  I used to be like, “Oh, I did not realise that was there”.  I used to be like, “I’m wondering if there’s one thing I may do there”, and that is utterly separate to work. 

Helen Tupper: My mum lately dressed up as a daffodil with a view to acquire cash for charity within the grocery store.  And I believe she was there, I believe you are not allowed to shake, however I believe she was very comfortable. 

Sarah Ellis: You are not allowed to shake!

Helen Tupper: You are not allowed to shake, are you?  So, I believe she simply smiled, dressed up as a daffodil, with somewhat notice.

Sarah Ellis: “Please”, yeah. 

Helen Tupper: Yeah, “Please put it within the bucket”. 

Sarah Ellis: So, that is doing motion one.  Will we really feel a bit extra concrete, a bit extra doable than we did ten minutes in the past? 

Helen Tupper: Sure, I believe volunteering is a manner that you are able to do good and making that concrete by both giving your self a rating or setting some hours apart, I really feel completely high-quality with that, I be ok with that. 

Sarah Ellis: So, motion quantity two is increasing your affect by one individual or group.  So, I like this one as a result of I really feel like we will all do that.  Now, he describes this as your ethical circle.  And there is kind of a diagram. 

Helen Tupper: While you body it, I am like, “That sounds nice”.  After which the phrases, I am like, “Oh, that sounds heavy”. 

Sarah Ellis: So, your ethical circle, think about concentric circles, and it begins within the center and it is you, after which it goes out to your family members, your mates, folks you’re employed with, neighbours, folks in the neighborhood, the nation, folks, animals, you already know, you may sort of preserve going.  And so, I used to be like, okay, this one I can get to fairly shortly, since you may simply actually take into consideration your position right this moment, who do you have already got a constructive affect on and the way, like what does that appear to be?  And in the event you had been simply going to increase that by one individual or one group of individuals, the place would you go first?  Who else would profit from what you have to give?  So, I may consider one for you immediately, as a result of this occurred final week.  So, I used to be like, okay, so this was Helen doing this.  So, you already do in Squiggly Careers in Motion, in our weekly publication, you’ll typically do a Helen how-to for our neighborhood.  And I am like, nice, folks love these, and it helps them with the right way to do one thing.  After which final week, you had been speaking to our crew a few GPT, making a GPT, and also you provided to do a Helen’s how-to for our crew.  So, truly you do one thing externally that really you do not do for our crew in the meanwhile, and everybody’s face simply lit up.  They had been like, “Sure, please, please do me a Helen how-to.  And so, that may be a very good instance of you extending your affect by mainly wanting inwards fairly than outwards, simply with that instance. 

Helen Tupper: So, query on that time, as a result of the way in which you described it, I kind of noticed ethical circles, like concentric circles.  You could have you, you will have household, mates, sort of going out.  Is the purpose to have extra folks in an current circle, so can I assist extra mates, can I assist extra household; or is the purpose to go additional out, so serving to mates of mates, or outdoors of my firm folks? 

Sarah Ellis: Yeah, it is a good query.  I believe what he is making an attempt to get you to is a ‘who else?’  So, fairly than assist the folks you at the moment assist extra deeply, which you could possibly clearly additionally do, it is sort of who else are you not supporting that you could possibly.  And so, then you definately exit and also you’re sort of hitting extra folks in additional locations.  So, it could be like us saying, “Whose profession are we not making higher, and the way may we assist these folks, as a result of they don’t seem to be the those that we assist right this moment?  And so, for instance, I may additionally consider one fairly shortly, which that is all the time fairly good in the event you can consider one.  I mentor folks by means of a programme one-to-one.  However then this week, I will an occasion that I have been to earlier than, and I am truly internet hosting a desk of ten folks, in order that I may help extra folks without delay and in addition join these folks collectively.  So, I’ve expanded my affect from one-to-one to one-to-ten.  So, that is not dramatic, that is not unrealistic.  And once more, that is the place you see these items get to you.  That concept got here after I learn the e book.  I believe since you then begin to assume, I used to be so, I imply, making an attempt to not beat myself up an excessive amount of, however I used to be making an attempt to problem myself to sort of go, “Properly, what would that appear to be for me, increasing my ethical circle?” additionally in a manner that feels reasonable, with my time and my effort and people sort of issues. 

However again to constructive affect, this isn’t about simply figuring out extra folks.  So, it isn’t like I will simply prolong my variety of connections.  It is in a manner the place you’re giving.  It is again to that individuals serving to folks.  So, we’d all the time discuss that is an effective way to construct your community.  And I do marvel, he would by no means say this, and I believe that is like his worst-case situation.  However in the event you undergo every of those, I do really feel like I may make a fairly good enterprise case for every of those being helpful in your Squiggly Profession, like volunteering, new folks to borrow brilliance from, stretch your strengths in numerous conditions.  Extending your affect is a very great way to make use of your strengths in a brand new solution to uncover new folks.  It is very folks serving to folks.  That is actually not the purpose. 

Helen Tupper: That is not why he wrote the e book. 

Sarah Ellis: No, however I can get there. 

Helen Tupper: We’re not making an attempt to save lots of the world, we’re making an attempt to save lots of careers.  Sure, third motion. 

Sarah Ellis: So, third motion, I truly did not have a very good reply to, however I appreciated the motion.  So, one of many factors he makes is there are hardly any what he calls zeros, like individuals who utterly begin from scratch and assume, “I will create this factor”.  Like 99.9% of individuals are not that. 

Helen Tupper: Persons are already doing one thing good, or no? 

Sarah Ellis: As a result of it is extremely laborious to be the primary one.  So, like the primary individual to talk out in opposition to slavery. 

Helen Tupper: Okay, so a special factor, not as a result of we’re already doing one thing good, somebody may have completed the great factor we would attempt to do. 

Sarah Ellis: Yeah, and since it is truly fairly laborious, as a result of when he talks about being a zero, you’re sometimes going in opposition to one thing that could be very accepted, and everybody does, and that is simply how we do issues.  It would be like someone going now, “Properly, we’re all simply going to cease utilizing automobiles, or we are going to cease flying”.  So, it takes a variety of bravery, a variety of braveness, you have to be extremely visionary; and sometimes, put up with lots of people disagreeing with you.  However I imply, it is nearly excellent news, as a result of truly in the event you learn a few of these examples, and a few of them are within the e book, they’re inspiring, however they’re actually far-off, proper, since you’re like, “Properly, that feels actually difficult”.  So, most of us, we’re not a zero, and we do not have to fret about it. 

However what is useful to have is spot a selected position mannequin.  So, we act as soon as others have led the way in which.  The vast majority of us are actually good followers, however it’s a must to have somebody or one thing to observe.  After which truly, folks actually innovate.  Persons are usually impressed by one thing or another person after which they give you like sensible issues.  And so, I believe one of many issues to do is to begin the search, in the event you do not have already got one, for like what is the reply to that for you?  As a result of truly, once I thought of it, I can take into consideration position fashions within the work that we do, so I can title folks whose work I love or folks the place I am like, I actually like how they do what they do.  But when I’m connecting this again to being morally formidable, how they’ve possibly approached constructing their enterprise, they’re sort of extra related to one thing extra purposeful in that manner.  I used to be like, oh, that is a bit more durable. 

So, there’s someone I do know, I used to be considering I actually like.  So, my pal, Tom, runs an organization referred to as Good and Severe.  And what I like about Good and Severe, they do morally formidable work, truly.  They seem to be a good instance.  So, they are a inventive company who do morally formidable work, and so they have a filter for who they resolve to work with; they’ve some sensible insurance policies; they have a very good interval coverage that they discuss.  He writes a very good publication referred to as Company in Progress.  And each time I learn that, I really feel like they’re all the time stretching and difficult themselves.  They do good work for good manufacturers or good companies, usually charities or social enterprises, these sort of issues.  And I used to be like, truly, that is a very good instance of the kind of enterprise I wish to construct.  So, I used to be beginning to get there, nevertheless it took me a short time.  And that is clearly somewhat little bit of a person, however a little bit of a enterprise too, as a result of then what you can begin to ask your self is, “Okay, effectively how may I be taught extra from –” I see Tom now and again, however in all probability solely each couple of years, and I observe Good and Severe, however I may dive into their world a bit extra, take into consideration how they work.  I may ask some extra questions. 

Helen Tupper: You can volunteer. 

Sarah Ellis: I may. 

Helen Tupper: Shut the loop! 

Sarah Ellis: I may go and do a Squiggly session for Good and Severe, and in return, simply ask them a great deal of inquiries to be like, “Okay, so how do you make a few of these choices?”  What about you?  It took me a little bit of considering. 

Helen Tupper: Properly, I used to be listening and considering the way you framed it, and I used to be fascinated about Alex Hirst and Lizzie Penny, due to how they’ve concerned Hoxby.  So, I believe now it is simply Hoxby.  Once I first grew to become conscious of them, it was Hoxby Collective, and their preliminary, and I could not sort of have the phrases fairly proper, however my notion initially of their function was about creating a brand new manner for folks to work, so bringing folks with a lot of completely different abilities collectively who wished to work with a lot of freedom in a kind of freelance manner, bringing folks collectively on initiatives.  However truly, over time, they’ve actually taken what they’ve discovered from managing this international neighborhood of those that wish to work in a different way, after which they wrote this e book referred to as Workstyle, and now they’re kind of influencing coverage to create higher work for folks.  And I believe that they’re actually good position fashions, as a result of how they’re evolving their enterprise and the way they’re pivoting in the direction of function, I discover that fairly inspiring, that the enterprise you’re right this moment is not the one you all the time should be, and you may construct on these ideas over time to get nearer to this purpose-based final result that you really want.  That was who I considered whenever you had been speaking. 

Sarah Ellis: Yeah, however that took me a second.  So, once more, you may need somebody listening, you is likely to be like, “Oh, I already know.  I do know the individual, I do know the corporate, I do know the neighborhood”. 

Helen Tupper: I used to be fascinated about Cook dinner as effectively, who we have labored with for ages, that is one other firm. 

Sarah Ellis: That is a very good instance.  Simply reveals although, does not it, it’s a must to begin speaking about it and considering.  Cook dinner are an excellent instance.  Once more, I like how clear they’re, I like how morally formidable they’re with who they recruit.  They recruit a variety of ex-offenders and so they’ve actually dedicated to that. 

Helen Tupper: James Timpson?  I imply, now you are happening, I may in all probability — 

Sarah Ellis: I believe as a result of initially, once I assume position mannequin, that in all probability wasn’t my filter.  And so, truly, it is simply taken me a short time.  You are asking the query from a special angle, which I believe is an efficient factor.  So, I actually hope everybody listening is okay and hasn’t discovered it too overwhelming.  It is humorous, I really useful this e book to Cath Bishop, who’s been on the podcast earlier than.  Cath wrote a e book referred to as The Lengthy Win, and she or he’s sensible.  And he or she was like, “I’ve already purchased it”.  I knew she was going to love it.  And we each stated afterwards, we had been like, “It actually does make you pause for thought”.  And I believe now and again, you do want a e book that challenges you, provokes you, prompts you to actually ask your self some troublesome questions, and I do not assume that is a nasty factor.  We do not need every thing to be simple, proper? 

Helen Tupper: I imply, a single e book remodeling you might be a little bit of a stretch, however a e book that makes you assume in a different way and query your self, I believe that may be a good final result.  I all the time say to myself, it is a good e book if I’ve made notes within the margin, and I believe if I had learn it, I in all probability would have made a variety of notes within the margin. 

Sarah Ellis: I did make — I’ve acquired underlines, yeah. 

Helen Tupper: Thanks a lot for listening.  If you happen to’ve acquired any suggestions on this new format for us, as a result of it’s barely completely different, tell us.  And remember that we additionally have gotten our new Thursday episodes, that are Squiggly Shortcuts.  So, very particular, very action-oriented that can assist you in your Squiggly Profession.  Our e-mail is helenandsarah@squigglycareers.com.  Tell us your ideas on this episode.  Tell us your suggestions on the format and every other concepts or matters that you simply’d love us to cowl. 

Sarah Ellis: Thanks a lot for listening everybody, we’ll be again with you once more subsequent week.  Bye for now.
