“We’re successful if person by person we help make a difference in their lives.”  

Read this article about Elizabeth Holmes, who has made medical history and is now one of the youngest billionaires based on her invention.  What’s amazing about her story is she took a risk, a leap of faith supported by a passion and a purpose and it paid off.. (an understatement as she is a billionaire now).

I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about following your passion and doing work that is meaningful to you and makes a difference in the world.  When was the last time you sat down and really gave your life a good look, asking yourself if you are doing something that satisfies you and contributes to your happiness? For many of us – that sort of stuff changes, or we really have no clue what path we are meant to walk down. And I realize, in most cases life doesn’t allow us to just drop everything and try a bunch of different paths  – but I do think we can choose to do something every day that gets us closer to figuring out what makes us happy.
