Finding myself

So I quit my job last week with no plan B...or A for that matter. I've been spending the last few months thinking about what it is I really want to be doing with my life.


I am just graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Business Management. Now that I've got the "practical" thing done for the Big MK (and a little bit for myself...for bragging rights), I guess it's time to be impractical.

Everything these days says, "It's your life. Live it how you want!"

I took a class a couple of semesters ago called Entrepreneur Lecture Series. As the name suggests, various entrepreneurs came and lecture to students about how they got to be where they are today. Most of their stories included guts, hard work, wit, expertise, but above all, doing what they love. That was the clear resounding message I gathered. Do what you love, and the money will come.

So in the coming months, perhaps not right away, I intend to find out what I love. But where do I start?

I guess first thing to do according to Jessica Winter in the June 2010 edition of The Oprah Magazine (Yes, I know. I read Oprah Magazine.)is to get my bearings by listing five things that make me thrive:

1. My dog
2. Food
3. Beauty
4. Reading
5. Designing

Let's see where this gets me...
