level 2

Hi Mark, I just listened to level 2 integration and I was inspired to look at numbers in my job but even more excited to look at numbers in my business of buying and selling houses. I mentioned before that when I was younger I loved to play soccer. I think I might have had situations close to ten second miracles while playing soccer. I can remember instances where I could see where the soccer ball had to be placed to make a goal. It was like time froze. I could see the goal before I actually made the goal or I could see myself moving through defensive players without realizing I was already moving past them. Looking back on it now I realize that those were the most amazing moments of my life. I was bigger than just the soccer game. I could see things more vividly. Now, all grown-up, I work for the state and I like it. At first, I dreaded this job and thought that there was more out there for me than what I do, but now I see myself advancing up the ladder. I am overloaded with opportunities that I have created for myself but in a way I still feel lost. I don’t feel like I did when I was playing soccer. With five years on the job, I am putting in for a promotion and things are looking good. I started a business and its new to me so I kind of feel like a fish out of water but luckily I have mentors in that area as well helping me through. I felt excited learning about seeing routine tasks as numbers and I will apply that to my business. I do not really see how it can work at my job, since it is a non profit organization. Thank you for showing me a different viewpoint of value creation at my job and teaching me about ten second miracles.
