Often looking inward helps how we want to project outward
currently reading Start something that Matters by Blake Mycoskie
Very Inspiring and honest
I thought todays blog would be a on the screen reflection
I will answer the three questions (page 36) here rather than simply reflect or write in my little notebook
- If you did not have to worry about money what would you do with your time?
The reality is , for me , I am at heart not extroverted. Many who know me will disagree, however It is more complicated. I honestly care about people, interaction, deep bonds and simply for me find that emotional attachment comes at a cost. Anyone who really knows me has heard me state “I am good for 3-4 good conversations a day” its a loose way of getting at the fact I am so absolutely connected to my interactions( even on a computer keyboard) that I need recovery after. I large training or passion driven pitch? Forget about it, I am sweaty, and wiped out after. Not in a bad way at all. Its that I care so much I put everything out. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
It directly correlates to what I feel deeply about within ” Be MORE , CARE MORE”
For me , no money involved would allow me more effectively to ignore “money offers” in career and focus on projects that matter. To focus on projects attached to giving something not just taking.
I would restrict my “conversations” to only those that #Matter
I would spend my hours creating, writing and experiencing life with my family, especially my Princesses , My baby Carmella and my wife Dana.
I would do more that I want to do, Hunt, Fish, learn more about cultures, I would travel often, I would immerse myself in my passions and expanding my learning…just some thoughts
2. What kind of work would you want to do?
I always wanted to write. since a young man. My passions run deeply in many directions. My imagination does as well.
I love a STORY
I have learned at this stage of my growth that the STORY is what makes something #Matter and #Remarkable #Purplecow
Products and services can only go so far
a story Transcends.
My job ideally is Chief STORY TELLER
3. What cause would you serve?
The cause would be ” Paying it forward” , Concious Capitalism at its best.
Doing things because someone will benefit
doing it with a giving component built into the DNA
so thats WHY the T2 Experiment
Its NOT a ploy for attention
I really do not want it
I want to give something
I want to hold a higher line
create a environment where the thing is done because it is the right thing
where a great and needed IDEA can become MORE
so heres to MORE
