Wh being “too committed” could just help your career

To break through to the next level in your career, business, or creative pursuit, healthy obsession—when wielded with intention—can do a lot for you.

When we hear the word obsession, it tends to carry a negative charge. We think of burnout, imbalance, delusion, maybe even someone a little unhinged. But in reality, obsession, when channeled with clarity and purpose, is often the hidden engine behind real breakthroughs, both personally and professionally. It’s what drives people to rise above mediocrity, unlock their full capacity, and perform at levels most never reach.
