Calling All High School And College Grads
It’s that time of year. Pomp and Circumstance and huh?…what am I supposed to do with the rest of my life and how do I get there? (Don’t worry kids, there are plenty of us who aren’t quite sure either at 30, 40, 50 and 60 years old.) Somehow if you just to roll with things (in a pointed way of course) and are able to be patient, things just end up working out somehow. For the meantime though, here’s an awesome organization that might help open your eyes and thoughts on some options for you:
Roadtrip Nation was started a few years back by two college guys Mike and Nate from California. (By the way if you email these guys, they actually email you back personally. Love that.) They went on a cross-country summer road trip, curious to interview and learn how everyone from business exec’s to lobstermen found their “open roads” for their lives/careers. The stories in this book are fascinating and a lot of times unexpected.
These Roadtrip Nation guys have created quite a movement encouraging and providing a way for a ton of young people to travel around the world interviewing and listening to stories of those living their lives based on what they’re passionate about. What an excellent thing. Read their Manifesto. Can’t argue with it one bit.
Here’s to blocking the noise and finding your open road. Congrats class of 2009!
