Whether you answer this personally or professionally, the answer should be the same. And if you’re like I was before I became a professional speaker ten years ago, you aren’t sure what I’m talking about. Right?
Generally speaking, things happen two ways, by design or by default.
In two hours, I’ll be running my first 5k run in several years. I started running a decade ago. After a few years, I needed a “carrot” to keep me motivated. I ran my first 5k, ever.
In two hours, I’m running the very same 5k. This is by design. It’s an historic tradition that has incredible meaning in my life. I could have picked any 5k to kick off my “comeback”, but I didn’t, by design.
Will you, or your organization, do things with purpose today, or will you drift aimlessly? Carpe diem, jungle jeff 🙂
