EP 65: PhilHSC On What Do You Want To Do?

Description:

The punchline: Think first about how you want to be remembered. It will help you answer what you want to do in life.

So, what do you want to do?

I struggled with this question for the longest time.

There was a storm inside me that constantly reminded me of my potential. The problem was I didn’t know how to apply it to answer this question.

Practicality told me to earn money to pay rent.

Experience told me to rust on to the best leaders to accelerate my learning.

Military service told me to never underestimate the power of high calibre teams and mateship.

My upbringing told me to respect people’s perspectives, motives and religion.

And hope told me that hard work’s payoff would reveal my ‘why’.

But hope isn’t a strategy and I was also no closer to answering what I wanted to do when asked by friends, colleagues or recruiters. And when the question came up when a military career was no longer an option and after my first venture failed, saying ‘I don’t know’ or fabricating an answer was exhausting.

I was desperate for an answer. The frustration was palpable and it kept me awake at night.

That’s no longer a problem.
