Based in Washington, i am president of a food safety company. My musings explore life, work and every moment in between.

What am I going to do next?

It’s long-term planning season. The summer is when we begin plans for next year. I like to start with a personal introspection question for this process.

“What do I want?”

Starting to come up with a vision? Great.

Now here’s the real question; what are you going to do next?
