None of these really applied to me when I was happiest while working (Freshbooks, 2008).
Back then I was able to both learn and perform at astonishing rates. I had a manager back then that really understood my strengths (self-directed, inventive, intelligent, learns quickly) and my weaknesses (bored by routine work, sometimes silly) and just set up an environment around me to where I was constantly over performing.
I think I made FreshBooks close to a million dollars in value that year. I didn't care about invoicing. I wasn't loyal to my manager. I was motivated by my growth and performance.
