[MTC Global] Fwd: “Finding your calling — it’s not passive,”

What are your broken dreams?

• Dan Pallotta dreams of a time when we are as excited, curious and scientific about the development of our humanity as we are about the development of our technology.
  
• "What we fear most is that we will be denied the opportunity to fulfill our true potential," Pallotta says.
• We dream boldly in the dimension of our doing, but set the bar no higher than stability in our emotional lives. It's time to dream in multiple dimensions at the same time, says AIDSRide Founder Dan Pallotta.
  
• He aims to transform the way society thinks about giving, and being. Full bio
• I'm talking about dreaming as boldly in the dimension of our being as we do about industry and technology. I'm talking about an audacious authenticity that allows us to cry with one another, a heroic humility that allows us to remove our masks and be real.

We should not shrink from this opportunity simply because we don't really understand it. There was a time when we didn't understand space. Or because we're more used to technology and activism. That is the very definition of being stuck in a comfort zone. We are now very comfortable imagining unimaginable technological achievement. In 2016, it is the dimension of our being itself that cries out for its fair share of our imagination.

"Finding your calling — it's not passive,"
StoryCorps founder Dave Isay takes issue with it … specifically, the verb "Finding your calling — it's not passive," he says. "When people have found their calling, they've made tough decisions and sacrifices in order to do the work they were meant to do." Calling, says Isay, very often starts with taking a stand against a status quo that simply isn't acceptable, and then dedicating your work to changing it: "It's work ignited by hope, love, or defiance — and stoked by purpose and persistence."

• Your calling often comes out of difficult experiences.
• Calling often takes courage and ruffles feathers.
• Other people often nudge you toward calling.
• What comes after identifying your calling is what really matters.
• Age is irrelevant.
• Calling often doesn't come with a big paycheck.
