I&#39;ve now had about a dozen conversations and at least twice as many Email exchanges with people Who are in transition after leaving the company last week. The face-to-face meetings are very powerful for me. I have no real answers\u2026 But I am a good listener. (Or at least I think I&#39;m a good listener.). I am happy to have helped a couple of people find new leads\u2026 But no new jobs yet. I have my fingers crossed.<\/p>\n<p>    I am so impressed with everyones  attitude and vision  as they Map out there next career move. Almost all of them plan on using this situation as an opportunity to better align their personal goals with their work goals. Someone to be bolder and start businesses\u2026 Some want to be more compassionate and work more with people\u2026 Someone to relax more and have less stress. All of these options sound pretty interesting. Though I recognize it&#39;s quite scary when you don&#39;t have a choice.  But I guess we always have a choice<\/p>\n<p>Listening to their stories and plans I cannot help but reflect on my own situation. what do I want to do when I grow up?<\/p>\n<p>Do I want to grow up?<\/p>\n<p>Nite all, nite sam,<\/p>\n<p>-me<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=text-align: right; font-size: small; clear: both; id=blogsy_footer><a href=http:\/\/blogsyapp.com target=_blank><img src=http:\/\/blogsyapp.com\/images\/blogsy_footer_icon.png alt=Posted with Blogsy style=vertical-align: middle; margin-right: 5px; width=20 height=20 \/>Posted with Blogsy<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Still hot and humid\u2026 I&#39;m finding that I like it more than I think I would.
