…and you will have multiple steps in your life. You will have multiple careers. Multiple jobs are/is always been a given. Multiple careers, I believe, is now the norm and those careers may be related. They may be entirely unrelated. I’m actually doing some interesting things right now where I’ve decided that the one thing that really interests me right now is my photography. And I’m not a wedding photographer. I’m not a professional photographer out there, but I’m finding ways of using photography to drive my blogs, like my gardening blog and my other things and also used in products and books and other things and other ways of doing that. Totally divorced — if you only saw me as a high-tech worker, you’d be like “what the heck is this?” Now, a lot of people don’t know tat I have a theater degree. That’s what I graduated college in and I have water color painted and all sorts of other artistic pursuits, but if you were to look at me, knowing only one aspect of my life, you might wonder “Well, how the heck did he get there?” But that’s where I’m coming from. And every day is another step along that way and the path winds as you go and you need to follow that path sometimes. Even if it’s only in a small way. Even if it’s only in those half hour in the morning or half hour at night or on your lunch break or whatever, you have ways that you can explore these other alternatives and learn a little bit more about yourself.
