I usually advise people seeking career advice to stick to something they will do with passion, love and honesty. I went to college for human resources (better known as personnel administration back then) and it turned out to be a profession and career I loved. On the day I began at Cornell (all those years ago) I met some individuals who joined with me to start a folk-singing band that performed the entire 4 years we were there – people who were passionate about singing songs that encouraged others to care, in love with making harmonies, and honest with each other about how and why the music mattered. I’m having a reunion with them this week and it’s great to see that the passion, love, honesty, and harmonies are still there. Make sure you bring that same kind of gusto, commitment and professionalism to whatever you do. That’s what makes life worth living today.
