Description: Are you doing something that you love?

Question: Whom would you like to interview, and what would you ask?

Transcript: Wow. It’s so many. Like there’s so many people like, you know, that . . . There are so many different people that it would be, like, interesting to sit down and talk with. But to be honest I think that the one person I would like to sit down with right now would be Al Gore. Because I think, you know . . . He’s someone that I feel like is . . . is . . . is so in tune, who actually does get a lot of this stuff. And you know whether it’s like being – talking about the environment with An Inconvenient Truth, or like talking about this breakdown in . . . in political discourse that we’re having with . . . when he wrote this book, “The Assault on Reason”, and how he talks about the Internet as a possible, you know, solution to these problems. And . . . and I’m sure like he’d have a lot more, you know, valuable things to say. But I would, you know . . . And him understanding, like, the value of like, you know, the Internet, and about, like, its value as a communications medium, and a medium for creation. I would love to like, you know . . . I would love to talk with him. I don’t know if I would ask him as many questions as I would try to convince him to run for president. But he would be someone that I would . . . I would love to engage with and talk with. Definitely like at the top of the list.

Question: What should we be asking ourselves?

Transcript: I guess it’s sort of generic, but it’s you know, are you doing something . . . You know the question is am I doing something that I love? And I think we’ve reached this point where you can take your passion and turn it into a livelihood. And it’s a unique . . . I think it’s a unique moment in time where you can do that. Not everybody, but I mean I think like for . . . You know if you’re . . . By and large like I think the opportunities are more open, and the world is like a lot flatter. You know and I don’t just speak in like book-title clichés I hope; but you know it . . . the opportunities are . . . There’s never been as much opportunity in the world as there is right now to find what you’re passionate about, and then create some sort of business or career around it. And so I really encourage people . . . I mean my thing is like find what you’re passionate about. I mean just figure it out, you know? And I don’t know how to get any more specific, you know, than that, but that’s what I tell people.
