I am putting together the framework for how to define a PASS Special Interest Group and it suddenly hit me: I love this stuff. This is what I want to do with my career, I want to build things. It could be a product, or a community, but the idea that I have some much creative control over how the end result will be shaped is truly exciting. This way I know exactly who to hold responsible for any failures, and any success will be attributed to those that help me along my journey.
What about starting a business – have you ever thought about that?
Sounds good. Those “I love this s**t” moments are rare & wonderful.
Funnily enough, I had one of those moments shortly before the Summit when I was getting my user group started, had another one at PASS, and have kept on having them as I keep working with the SIGs and the local chapter. It’s a great feeling.
