My Life Mission - Over the years I have become highly focused and very goal oriented. Yes,
I am one of those individuals that actually carries his "5 year goal statement"
around in his wallet. I look at it to remind myself where I am going and to
measure my performance. Goals help us all understand if we are making progress in life or just spinning our
wheels. I had always been able to identify the 1 year to 5 year goals, but the life
"mission" had really been eluding me! I mean really, what am I
here to do? What is it that I am suppose to accomplish in one life time? For the longest
time I could
not figure it out. Currently, after looking at my career history,
I concluded that my
"life mission" is to "create
jobs". After all, that is what I do. I create opportunities
for people to be useful, to be productive, to contribute and to grow.
I Start projects and
companies that give life direction, hope and add to the human
economy. I have come to learn that I can live with that. More
importantly, I can die with that."
