One last post before the weekend. I will be travelling Sunday and will most likely be busy all day on Saturday. Things continue to be busy and interesting in my personal and professional life. I spent a lot of time in the first part of the year thinking about career options. I do that as a general practice every year. I read a blog recently that I think will have a profound impact on how I do my annual career review in the future. The post is called the Sweet Spot of your Work. It posits some questions to ask yoursefl.

This is the intersection of three interlocking circles: the first is "what people will pay you to do" - marketable skills and abilities that you have developed over your working life.  The second is "that which you have great passion for" - areas of interest, hobbies, ideas or causes that make your heart race.  And the third, and most elusive, is "that which you are genetically encoded to do" - the things that you were brought on this earth to accomplish that no one else on the planet can do as well as you.  Where these circles interlock is your "sweet spot" and place that you should spend your working life if you want to feel alive and full of joy.

I think I am pretty close to this "sweet spot" right now. Staying close or getting closer are things to really think about.
