On Figuring Out Life

I think a lot of people feel like this for a good percentage of their lives. Trying to figure out what to do with your life is not an easy thing to do.
Trust me, I know. I have been a ski school flunky, camp counselor, pizza boy, government intern, stockbroker, insurance salesman, model scout, unemployed boozer, sandwich artist, customer service person and now online marketing guy. And those are the jobs I did get! I didn’t get jobs as a playground attendant, mortgage insurance salesman, worker at Target, cable ad space salesman, and Peace Corps volunteer in Bulgaria(got the job but did not go), just to name a few.
The one thing I have learned is that because of all of these jobs and situations, I have ended up in a place where I feel like I know what I am doing with my life – and it feels great.
So if you feel like you have no idea what you are doing with your life at this point, remember that what is happening to you right now is getting you to where you are going in life. You just don’t realize it yet.
Make sure you read this post from Scoble as well, good stuff.
