This document discusses the differences between an acquisitive career and a contributor career. An acquisitive career focuses on acquiring rewards, while one's interest is proportional to rewards. A contributor career views work as an opportunity to contribute to oneself, one's team, family, society, and nation. It suggests having a steadiness in attitude not defined by daily rewards. It provides dimensions of being a contributor such as understanding requirements, showing interest in contributing, bringing energy and ideas, being committed, and delivering when needed. The document emphasizes having a vision at the center rather than a focus on activities alone.
