Judge Griffith spoke about his career and how he had moved around to different opportunities seeking to find his passion. Please describe what you feel you are passionate about today and where you think these interests will take you as you start your career path.
The interesting thing about my life right now is that I know I am in the right major, but I'm not exactly sure how it is going to get me to my true passions. Honestly, I love my classes as a public health major, but I have always dreamed of teaching someday. Teachers can have such a profound impact on the lives of those around them and are able to change lives one child at a time. When it comes down to it, I am passionate about service and helping people. I know I will take jobs that help me to do this. Hopefully, this is the underlying passion that will always guide my career path.
Judge Griffith quoted several versus in Jacob 2, in reference to the pursuit and use of wealth. How will you apply the concepts that Jacob shares with us as you experience success in your career.
I have always lived a fairly frugal life and I plan on continuing that way. I want to pursue riches in the worldly sense, so I can be in the position to serve at whatever capacity I am asked to serve. If I am willing to work hard today, I will be able to serve 'harder' tomorrow. I am grateful for the examples in my life who have shown me that this is a great way of living. If I am old and can go on 3 missions in a row, that would be great! :)
Please share something you learned about leadership in your career from Judge Griffith’s presentation.
Judge Griffith's presentation helped me to realize that we can be a leader in any position, but I need to want to be a leader. It won't do me any good to go about life trying to accomplish the 'shoulds.' In order to work hard, I will need to set myself about the task of working hard.
