Tell me about yourself.

[resonant]

I'm suddenly struck with the desire to know how other people do the things that matter most to them, how they find and follow their passions.

How do you decide where your heart is? How do you carve out time and energy to pursue it?

Are you on a new road or one you've been following for a long time? What have you learned that could help others? What false starts have you made, what poor judgments? What have you compromised, and what do those compromises look like to you now?

hee! maybe I should do a bestselling help book. Except I doubt it *would* sell, because the ones that sell all seem to be "you can follow your dreams *and* get filthy rich!"

I saw the HP movie last night and it left me with a burning desire to reread Transfigurations for the 47th time. So I'm off to do that.

Hey! You should do a HP recs post. I could use some new reading material, and I totally trust your judgment.

Who knows what it takes to make a self-help book sell. I'm surprised I've never seen one called Get Rich By Writing Self-Help Books!

I'm ashamed to say I'm reading so little HP -- mostly I follow lj user=painless-j>'s recs. Two recent discoveries whom I like very much are schemingreader and busaikko.
