+# Why should you abandon your career path?
+
+1. The people in engineering are not role models.
+2. Our clients are not people in my community.
+3. I've learned what I can learn from it.
+4. The types of solutions we produce are ones that this world has too many of. Industrial automation goes against the yearnings in my heart - to dignify labor.
+5. You don’t really need a reason to quit a job.
+6. The work does not embody the Gospel from head-to-toe and I really need a voice in my work life that is seeking this.
+7. My muscles are atrophying. I'm becoming pigeonholed. I'm becoming a bugman. I hate this. My soul yearns for more.
+
+# God wants me.
+How does he want me?
+- He wants me to be close to him and hear him.
+- He wants me to be strong and healthy.
+- He wants me to be wise.
+- He wants me to be helpful to those around me.
+- He doesn't want me to be a bugman.
+- He doesn't want me to be isolated.
+- He doesn't want me to be a dullard.
+- He doesn't want me to solve _all_ of the world's problems. Only He can do that.
+
+What problems are around me that I _can_ take on? What are _my_ problems that I can solve? I often say that "I don't have problems, only those around me do"... but then again I also overcame some problems.
+
+### What did I overcome?
+- A PMO addiction
+- 
+
+### What am I yet to overcome?
+- Finding purpose and meaning
+- Being able to focus and stay attentive
+- Speaking truthfully and tactfully
