The Tipping Point

This is somewhat related to Malcom Gladwell's book The Tipping Point (I have this book and Blink as well), where he discussed how little things can make a big difference

I have the "luxury" of reviewing my life, my careers, my goals to prepare for my application, and the most important questions are clearly - why? why now? who am I?

A wise lady shared with me - the I that I was, is different than the I I am now, and the I that I will be. I was reviewing pieces of my life in the last 8 years and how I have changed, for the better - from not knowing exactly what I wanted but what everyone seemed to want, to seeing it all via various jobs and social encounters, and then beginning to see my Tipping Point, and then wanting more.

With age comes wisdom, I hope these little things I will be doing in the next 2 months, will make a big difference in my life beyond the next 3 years.
