At one point in human history, people envisioned themselves
or their children making positive changes in the world as priests, prophets and
philosophers.
Later they considered artists the primary world changers, then
statesmen, and even later scientists.
In modern times great financiers were
seen as those who would improve the world, then the public shifted this hope to
professionals--every mother wanted to boast that her son was a doctor, lawyer,
accountant or engineer.
After this came the societal hope for change through
executives (the choice of the Right) or journalists (preferred on the Left).
More recently the younger generation placed this same kind of aspiration in
technology.
We have reached a point, in the emerging Information Age,
where more and more hope is being invested in young people from all of
these--and other--walks of life.
Mission--personalized, passionate and
pervasive--is now the prevalent goal of the young.
Each person has a mission.
Each person can find full contentment only by successfully achieving one's
mission.
Each mission has the potential to drastically improve the world.
If you have found your mission, we all need you to succeed.
If not, we all need you to find it.
Moreover, you need you to find it.
