I had the distinct pleasure today of meeting with a friend who is one of those women...you know the kind...leaps tall buildings in a single bound and looks great doing it, all while managing family, friends and work. She's the kind of girl you'd hate if she weren't so damned nice. We were discussing all the things you do with your girlfriends, and I was telling her about my ongoing job search (yes I'm in the middle of one...welcome to the new world.) I was describing the type of place I wanted to find when she said, "Oh, I know what you mean...you want less blah blah and more boom boom!" Omigod did she just say that? Hysterical right? But yes..that's EXACTLY what I want. Not only in my job...IN MY LIFE!
How many of us talk and talk and talk about what we want, yet never do it? How many people do we know who blah blah but never boom boom! In fact, let's face it...much of corporate America, American politics and life itself is blah blah. But boy do we know boom boom when we see it. Steve Jobs boom booms! Oprah Winfrey boom booms! Warren Buffet boom booms! When you meet that special someone, you don't say my heart went "blah blah", you say it goes "boom boom"!
From now on, I'm embracing boom boom, and brooming blah blah. Life's too short not to boom.
Ciao, Jules
