"You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength."~ Marcus Aurelius

One extension of this is that your meaning comes from within. Looking outside of yourself for meaning will always be looking at things that are outside of your control. Therefore your job can never give you true meaning. Only whether in doing your job do you hold true to your values. That is what gives your job meaning.
