Prolific You

I heard someone remark, “Stress is when we do what we think we ought to do, while Joy Passion is doing that which brings joy and fulfillment at the end of the day.”  I’ve been living for awhile now, and have to say I agree with this statement 100%.

For years, I lived my life seeking the best paying job, status, a new challenge, etc though I was miserable and didn’t even know it.  So, I finally let go after going through a period of feeling emptiness within.   Nevertheless, this led me to a journey of self discovery that can be best summed up by the late Steve Job’s view, “You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards.  So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.  You have to trust in in something-your guts, destiny, life, karma, whatever.”

I did exactly that, and while I admit it was purely serendipity, today, am doing what I love, and have had the opportunity to help others do just that.  You can too!  Choose to look back at what you loved to do as a child, and you will be surprised of the rich clues to what your Prolific Now, and Future could be!
