SHOW NOTES:
Chuck Bowen and I discussed the reality that in order to pursue free agency, you should be in a life circumstance that is not dire, where you can do it right. This is not a 'quick fix' or 'bandaid' solution. In getting to the last four questions I posted, number one was:
- What are you wanting to address in your life through successful free agency?
Joshua Gordon was with us during the live show, but posted this in the blog comments section:
"I think my pursuit of free-agency is fueled by a deep dissatisfaction with the 'template life' that so many of us have grown up in.
I'm tired of missing out on life opportunities because of work. I'm tired of my 'work' and my interests being at odds. I'm tired of exhausting myself doing ultimately pointless 'busy-work' in an office that determines when, where, and how I spend my energy. I'm tired of not really knowing my daughter as closely as my wife does.
I want the freedom to take my daughter out of school for an afternoon for a date. I want the ability to be completely mobile - to work from anywhere. I want the ability to have a life where work and passion are seamlessly integrated... and where the glass ceiling doesn't exist.
Does all this make sense?"
YES Joshua...absolutely and amen.
What do you think?
