Ruskin believed the value of work was not in its output but in what the worker became from it. For him, satisfaction came from the act of creativity, whereas turning workers into automatons was soul-destroying.
Today, it’s easy to focus on what automation promises to produce—more efficiency, higher output—without considering the experience of the people doing the work. Ruskin’s insights remind us that the process matters. The ability to find meaning in what you’re doing, even if it’s repetitive or imperfect, is critical to feeling fulfilled.
Psychologists today would explain this in terms of job crafting, where workers shape their roles to make them more personally meaningful. The key is to automate the boring, repetitive tasks while holding onto the parts that bring personal satisfaction and purpose. Automating the most interesting and fulfilling aspects of your work risks erasing the joy and engagement that come from doing what matters.
Often the most intellectually challenging work is the most fulfilling, but sometimes doing the challenging but worthwhile work slows us down. Don’t let efficiency steal the fulfillment that comes from the most meaningful but time-consuming tasks.
