    What is my purpose? What is my calling? How shall I invest my time, energy, and attention?

    Find Your Strengths

    Outside of work, is there a steady stream of recognition to mirror your strengths?  Here are a few ways to identify or remember your strengths.  Once you identify them, you may notice that you are using them on a regular basis already.  Or, you may discover new ways you’d like to put your strengths to work for the benefit of your family, community, or something that’s meaningful to you.

    What are you going to be when you grow up?

    Parents, teachers, and friends often asked me this question. In second grade, the teacher asked us to make a construction paper cut-out of what we wanted to be when we grew up. At 7 or 8 years old, I knew I wanted to be a teacher.

    Have you ever seen a sunset?

    The grandfather asked his young granddaughter “Have you ever seen a sunset?” I overheard this as a family walked past me on the grey wooden deck overlooking Lake Erie. This family, along with others in the area, found a place to wait for and view the sunset over Lake Erie on a warm fall weekend
