Helping People IS The Goal
Summary
- When I was younger, I wanted to save animals, and later, I wanted to be a doctor. My goal was always to help others, whether it was animals or people.
- I found a different way to help people than I expected, and I didn't initially think I would become a CEO.
- I feel very fortunate to be in a position where I can help others and also gain financial rewards for myself and others.
- Remember, it's okay for your career path to change as long as you stay true to the core desire to help others.

How To Take Action
I would suggest implementing the desire to help others in whatever path you choose. First, identify what you are passionate about and think creatively about how it can be useful to others. Look for ways to offer service or create value without needing to completely overhaul your life.
A good way of doing this is by starting small. Volunteer your time or skills in your community or online, focusing on activities where you feel you can make a difference. This can include mentoring, creating useful content, or supporting local initiatives. By giving back in small ways, you can maintain your passion while exploring different paths.
Another strategy is to embrace change in your career journey. It's crucial to stay flexible and open to opportunities that align with your core desire to help others. Don’t be afraid to pivot if the path you’re on doesn’t fully align with your values or goals.
Additionally, stay grounded in your original motivations. Regularly check in with yourself to ensure you are still driven by your desire to help others. This intrinsic motivation will sustain you through challenges and guide your decision-making process.
Finally, remember that financial success can go hand in hand with helping others. Look for opportunities where your efforts can lead to sustainable rewards for you and those you serve. Focus on creating win-win situations where everyone benefits from your work. This approach will keep your career purposeful and rewarding in both personal fulfillment and financial aspects.
