It seems harder and harder to find people with a passion for doing something amazing. When I speak to college students, they tell me that they are taking classes because that’s what says to do in their degree plans. They are working towards something; they just don’t know it yet.

Older people love to share stories about good things they once did, somewhere, during sometime with someone. They don’t always remember the details but what they share makes them smile. What they don’t know is what they are doing tomorrow.

What are you doing tomorrow? Ask yourself this question and the answer might be an attempt to catch up to what you were doing yesterday. Our busy schedules are filled with time, tasks, and testing moments of frustration. What they aren’t filled with are hopes and the desire to do big things.

We all have it in us — that feeling that we can change the world. Somewhere, under layers of meetings and deadlines, it’s there. You feel it once in a while, usually when you stop and take a breath. Quiet moments are filled with the sounds of future accomplishment.
