My take away from this week study... I have a lot of pondering and reflection to do regarding my future and what I want to do/become. With time and effort I will be rewarded in coming closer to understanding my "calling" in life.

I enjoyed my reading and the video’s this week. Randy Komisar spoke on finding your passion and pursuing it. He stated that “How to choose your passion?” can be paralyzing, especially when you have several passions. He suggested that you look at your values, what you care about, and the opportunities facing you. Then ask yourself, “How do they sync together,” Look at the intersections and them make a decision based on those opportunities. This has given me something to ponder and reflect on this week.

David Friedburg’s video was interesting, he spoke about “most entrepreneurs are not rock stars” meaning 99% of entrepreneurs are not rich. He said, “The reason to become and entrepreneur should not be for the income.” His question was, “What do you want out of life?” Again I will be taking time to reflect and think about his question.

I really enjoyed Jeff Sandefer, A Hero’s Journey video. He spoke of the paradox, “Hero’s journey is not about you – It’s all about you” it is about your happiness and using your gifts to change the world, when this happens you will be changed. Is that not beautiful! He talked about the three questions we will ask ourselves at the end of our lives, 1) Have I contributed something meaningful. 2) Am I a good person? 3) Who did I love and who loved me? With these questions in mind, how will I direct my course over the next few years? As I serve and love those around me I am sure I will find answers to my questions.
