This has been an exciting month. I have started on a new journey regarding my career. I have started to interview 10 people in various careers of interest. Everything from a sports coach to a director of a non-profit organization. Most of the people I have interviewed have been people of “cause.” To me a cause is something larger than yourself that invigorates your heart and leads you to invest your time, your dollars and your mind.
A person in fund development shared that the “cause” was the university they raise dollars for. These dollars lead to outstanding student athletes, students and people of cause when they leave. This person shared that her desire is to “find the place where they can be the most impactful on the planet and go do that.”
I look forward to sharing more of this with you in the coming months. My desire is to complete this exploration by January 1st 2010.
