The Million Dollar Question

Remember back in 7th or 8th grade when you took those personality tests to figure out what you wanted to do when you grow up? Or the time in college when you were taking psych 101 and they asked you, "If you had a million-gazillion dollars, what would you do?" And the answer ultimately meant that that was what you were supposed to do for a living.

This brings me to a conversation I had this week. It really wasn't a conversation, it more of a day dream. I was sitting there listening to my coworkers chat. They were talking about one of their son's needing to make a decision about what they wanted to do with their life. In my mind I had all the answers for this son. Based upon the five minutes of information I had it all figured out for him. I didn't say anything because this would have come across as rude and pompous.

So the point: I caught myself. I caught myself giving great advice without really having any direction for myself. I sat at Panera later with coffee and wrote till my heart was content about the million dollar question. I wrote about how great it would be to help business and home owners get off the grid. The grid being the electric grid and and coming off of it creating renewable electricity. I would come up with specific designs based upon specific needs in specific areas. It would be great because each method of getting these businesses or homes off the grid would be different. Now on to saving the world.
