What does it say about me if work brings meaning in my life.

Have been working on the same case for weeks on end. And mind you it isn't those glamorous complicated mega-billion dollar transactions. It is a simple accident at work. Though I'm sick and tired of facing the same documents over and over again, I am challenging myself to produce something worthwhile, something I can say I've put in hours for, and the work is good.

I like my job when I can see what I'm doing. Before I was wading in murky water, now it has become so much clearer. So I guess my boss has fixed his mess, which is also my mess. Thank God for breakthrough.

Now how do I go about helping myself get some clarity? Without involving all the clients and witnesses etc. Progression wise how do I do those kind of things faster? And can I strikeout on my own specialisation? Instead of relying on my boss to teach?
