One Word: DO
My 2013 one word is DO. And to be precise, it is not Do. It is DO.
As I reflect on projects nearly completed and opportunities ahead, it makes sense.
Do what you believe is great work
Welcome to the third anniversary of eighteen and life! Over the last three years, the pages of this blog have been filled with ideas and thoughts on my career in student affairs. It is special work that we do in guiding, shaping, and celebrating students. And it is new every day.
Steve Jobs described it best in his 2005 Stanford commencement address.
Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.
Jedi Master
My son tells me that he searched high and low for a birthday gift for me. In the toy aisle. And that he found the very last one of these. <(-_-)>
Named must your fear be before banish it you can.
Size matters not… look at me. Judge me by size, do you?
Do or do not… there is no try. ~Yoda
