Transcript:
Too often, in the turmoil of life and work, we don’t think about those things (our wants, needs and desires). We are so run off our feet that just keeping our life together, getting to work on time, getting to class on time, making sure the kids are fed, whatever, it overruns those very important and personal things about you life. So, I want you — and I often recommend this in my columns — whether its about a generic way, a general way or very specific ways –I tell my readers to go off and take some time to think. Grab your journal — and yes, I still carry a paper journal around — grab your iPhone, your iPad, whatever, go off to a nice quiet place where no one is going to bother you for a while — whether it’s the coffee shop or the woods or wherever — and think about what you really want out of your career and out of your work and out of your life. I can guarantee you it will improve every aspect of your life, because I see people that don’t do it and I see how troubled they can be.
