Yesterday in a comment left on EOD, I was introduced to this website. I thought it looked interesting enough to share with all of you. Thanks Jude! The American dream is no longer about finding a 9-5 and doing what you hate in order to make it to that retirement utopia you’ve always been told about! Nope! It’s about doing what you love and loving what you do. It’s about using your passion and your strengths to enjoy your place in life—to make a difference.
