I am learning a lot about myself
in the short amount of time that we have been going through this course. Even
without my trying, I see clearly my shortcomings and inadequacies. I feel like
my mind is being opened up; not just opened to new ideas and insights, but also
to my failings and successes in life. Everything in my mind is swirling in a
vortex of thought, metaphorically speaking. I suppose my next course of action
is to organize those thoughts and persevere to overcome my weaknesses and
limitations. I love the concept of perseverance. We you get into a rut, or when
life gets rough and difficult, enduring to the end is all that we can do.
I think that pursuing our
passions in our careers is key to us enjoying our jobs. Who would want to go to
work in a place that you dread going to? Why waste your time at something that
you hate doing? We should find our passions and work towards being a master in
something. As was mentioned in the video titled “A Hero’s Journey,” people will
pay good money to watch pros like Michael Jordan or Tiger Woods. We may not be
the greatest at basketball or golf, but we can find what we ARE good at, even
masters at, and have people pay us for that. For example, if someone is an
incredible artist, people will pay money to either view the masterpieces or
even purchase them outright.
That should be our goal then. To find
our passions, master them, and persevere in this lifelong journey.
