I’ve talked with so many people in so many different industries that have been going through clarity spikes in their identities, I figured this post might come in handy, perhaps pointing the way for others in the throes of transition.

Discovering your purpose isn’t a race. Instead of having the attitude of, “I’ve gotta find it NOW, so I can get going and make it happen!”, with a drive for perfection and a “now-I-can-stop-searching-and-just-be-happy” attitude, you’ll be far better off taking a page from the book of Japanese aesthetics, and more specifically, the concept of wabi-sabi.
