When
we are able to put our natural strengths, skills, knowledge, experience, and
energy into something we believe in, great things will happen in our lives.
My
next few posts will show us how others can help us find our true path in life.
When I was 17 years old, I
thought I wanted to be an orthopedic surgeon.
So, I accepted an offer to shadow the Milwaukee Brewers baseball team
doctor for one day. I expected to watch
surgeries and meet baseball players.
Instead, I had a different experience.
There were no surgeries to
watch. There were no baseball stadiums
to visit. There were just countless
examination room doors to open and close.
We visited patients in his office all day long – more than I can
remember. I knew the visits were
important; my own orthopedic doctors helped me many times. I just didn’t realize how much of a doctor’s
week was spent in the office. I learned in
one day that the path of a doctor was not for me.
This year, who will you
observe to test an interest of yours?
Don’t romanticize an interest.
Investigate it.
As always, let me know how
you’re doing when you have time. And
remember to share your stories with me.
Best to you,
p.s. Remember to keep

Law of the Garbage Truck™ to your lives, families, and businesses. Email me at [email protected].
