Let me say one last time that it's never too late to find your unmistakable voice.
To learn about yourself, continue to express yourself through work and develop
into who you are or are becoming as you and the world change.
That requires messy and necessary introspection, imagination, patience,
input from smart people, facing your fears, hard work, a reasonable timeline
and the willingness to set a goal and stick with it.
One thing that will help you through this is this snippet of advice
I share in talks I give. It's the advice that will never let you down.
It's from a character in the movie “The Road to Wellness” in which he says:
“Follow your heart. It's the one organ that will surely let you down one day.
So don't waste it while you're living.”
Finally, to answer the question I have heard a thousand times,
“What should I do with my life?” I say this: Build upon those gifts
you have been graced with. So when the time comes and you look back and ask,
“What have I done with my days?” you can say, “Everything I wanted.”
