So true! As they say “Birds of a feather flock together”, the same applies to “We are what we do”.The people you surround yourself with tend to “rub-off” on you in one way or another. Think about the friends you spend the most time with – you spend so much time together because you have similar interests and therefore enjoy doing the same things, hence you spend so much time together.
Now the same applies to you are what you do. The reason you are doing what you are is because it is a part of your character. I am in communications because communicating (a lot) is part of who Taryn Blows is. As a child my mom used to play the “silent game” with me. The game was that whoever kept quiet the longest would win a prize! I loved this game (only because I love winning prizes!) however I never ever won because I was such a chatter-box. Today, I’m in the field of communications – coincidence? No, I’m here because this is who I am. It is part of my character.
I’m sure reading this there are many people you can think of that represent the job that they find themselves in.
I think of friends of mine that went into the teaching profession. They were the type that loved helping others and always had all the patience in the world; these characteristics are key in a teaching profession.
I know of many strong-headed, opinionated people that now find themselves in the law industry, why? Because it is part of what their character stands for.
We definitely are what we do otherwise we wouldn’t be doing it I’m sure!
