Jeff is nearing age 50 and has followed one passion after another into a variety of careers. Although each choice made perfect sense to him, his family and friends keep telling him to stay put in one profession and rise higher.

That old saying: Jack-of-all-trades, master of none! reveals the bias against those who choose a varied work life rather than committing to a unidirectional path. There was a time, however, when society admired such a person. In fact, some of our greatest contributors have been talented in a variety of areas.

Leonardo da Vinci, painter of masterpieces such as the Mona Lisa, also designed and built bicycles, canals, musical instruments and flying machines. Benjamin Franklin not only helped draft the Declaration of Independence, he was also an inventor, statesman, printer, scientist, author, and student of French culture and language.

Beyond the Box

 

The following questions are designed to broaden perspectives, to open vistas, to widen the lens. There is no one right way to approach them. You can journal about them, talk to friends, create art, ponder them while driving, work out to them--whatever helps you explore "outside the box."

  1. How do you fit the "Renaissance Soul" profile?

  2. How does your work suit your nature?

  3. How many of your core values are fulfilled in the work you do?

  4. If you are considering starting a new business, what do you need to be that you aren't quite yet? And what do you need to have?
