How to Find One's Sustainable Joy? Part 1 Before the blog goes on to Step three of finding one's true identity, I thought I would address questions from my students that I believe is of great importance to many through the years of teaching in higher education. Some of my students asked me whether they should be actively looking for an internship, a permanent job, or starting their own businesses. My answer is usually all of the above. Receiving an offer for an internship, a permanent job, or funding for a new startup is not mutually exclusive. I usually encourage them to engage in an activity for a period of time before deciding whether such activity provides them with the sustainable joy most desired. I will use some real-life examples to demonstrate this idea of finding one's sustainable joy in their path of life. I will attempt to accomplish this in the following few weeks as I will provide a real-life example each week to avoid a lengthy weekly post. Walter Orthman, Br
