Doing what I love

Well, the dream search of doing what I love is on and this break (yeah I have been chilling for the past 50 days!) made me go through a soul searching process and here is what I am by default excited about or I would love to do when I am at work:

• Design Things (I love the entire design process and the icing on the cake would be mixing technology and art together)
• New experiences and thence learning
• Helping People directly &
  
• Emotional Story Telling

I would like to do the above so that it leads to change or impact and enables wealth creation I would love to do that with a great bunch of people in a lovely environment. I think if I am actually doing this work will no longer remain work.

My Mantra at a Job is Work, People, Learn and Play. Whats yours? I will follow this up with my learnings of working at different places. If you have already given some thought about this for yourself then the post: Finding the work you love at Zen Habits might be helpful.

TV’s dumbness

Epeus’ epigone points to an amazing quote by David Foster Wallace that resonated in me completely:

TV is not vulgar and prurient and dumb because the people who compose the audience are vulgar and dumb. Television is the way it is simply because people tend to be extremely similar in their vulgar and prurient and dumb interests and wildly different in their refined and aesthetic and noble interests.

The blog post also takes inspiration from nature in terms of how applications can be viral. Something I personally subscribe to. We have a lot of learn simply by just observing nature!
