And I am not talking about Obama, though that is pretty damn impressive. I keep thinking about ideas for consulting and have not yet landed on anything concrete, but the more I ponder my future, the more I see myself being a person of confidence who can help more than just those who will listen in a large corporation with new leadership. I find myself often expressing my opinion, but not necessarily making headway. I want people to pay me to start a change for them, push them along the right path and provide sage advice as they take their first steps. Then, I want to back off and do it all over again somewhere else.
This should not be too hard, but I just have not figured out where to start. I guess I could start talking to some people who do it today and get a feel for what is required. I am not sure what the overall qualifications look like, but figure I can learn anything, so I should be OK. Also, I have a friend who makes chocolate, so I can bribe my way with delicious treats! 
I am also torn with the opportunities I see for me at my current job, but am having trouble with the culture change. It is not the change itself, but the direction it is taking. I have not bought in to it yet and I don’t think that is a good thing…
I guess I will tough it out a while longer, do some research and reserve a decision for AFTER the bonus payout.
Stay interested and interesting!
John
