What Do You Do?

“What do you do?” It’s a common question. Small talk. I’m a doctor. A concert pianist. A mechanical engineer.

That doesn’t tell us much.

A better question might be “How do you make an impact?”

I help people manage cancer diagnoses. I inspire people with my sonatas. I build bridges that keep people safe.

It’s easy to focus just on the doing. But impact is where the real truth can be found.
