enJOY it

Sat down today in my Strategic Management Class, my last ever business course and the last class I need to graduate, and was immediately reminded why Business School has messed up my life.  Chatter.  Everywhere.  About who interned where, and who has a job where, and how so-and-so has started working for Ernst, Chuck, Tabitha, McDonald Inc. Group.  And yada, yada, yada, yada.  And I just wanted to plug my ears.  Because it is chatter that took me off my own path.  My own search for the ideal career.  My own passions. 

Fortunately, this semester, I am able to recognize and dismiss the chatter. 

I have learned a lot in 3.5 years.  Lesson one: Cultivate a strong sense of self.
