That's what I'm talkin' about.

Marviaaaaa! How’s the married life treating you? You can still call me Will, by the way ;)

I’m so glad to hear that you’re in a position to go after what fulfills you. I don’t just mean from a financial perspective either. I talk to countless young professionals who feel like it’s their duty to slog it out in unfulfilling corporate prisons. People like Pamela Slim are helping to liberate people of all ages from this way of thinking.

You’re not rambling at all — I’d actually love to hear about what you’re considering. Thanks so much for coming by to comment.

I don't think having day-to-day activities and fulfillment are mutually exclusive. There are a lot of things that entrepreneurs and artists have to do in addition to what drives them. E-Myth Revisited addresses this issue in-depth, and explains why this is the undoing of many self-employed people. It goes without saying that your feedback is appreciated though, and I'm glad we got a chance to talk about some of your ideas yesterday. Uncanny timing, no?

Hi Mr. Future President! It’s been a while since I’ve visited Facebook land, but as always, its been a pleasure to read your ever-profound posts. As others have already commented, your essay comes at a time when I am reflecting on my level of happiness and life satisfaction. It truly speaks to me. Right now, I am on the brink of making the leap from well-paid, but unfulfilled to underpaid, yet passionate and satisfied. I know I’m rambling, but it must be the effect of your thought-provoking essay!

No longer just the streets of Jacksonville; I think it’s high time I take this journey international.

…and those words of encouragement are well deserved. :-)

Great post! I’m coming up on an anniversary at my job and naturally the re-evaluation process begins.

“day-to-day activities giving us the fulfillment we desire” quite the oxymoronic statement! Have you ever heard of starving artist? They are starving for a reason.

Can passion ever outweight reason to the logical thinker?
