Work portfolios

Charles Handy 's book The Age of Unreason discusses the idea of work portfolios which include paid work, homework, gift work and study work.

"...the full portfolio of work only begins to expand after the (paid) job ends. The most difficult transition ...is in fact from a one-item portfolio to a multi-item one, not to an empty one. The transition is always a very personal bit of discontinuous change.." (at page 148).
