Playing the long game
Professionally, I am a consultant. This means I have opinions about most everything. I also have a little experience. What drives me is to be of service, which means (to me) that I pursue/contribute to something greater than my own needs, interests, etc. I am internally motivated (like my Daddy - yes that is how I refer to him - so now you know). I have never been particularly interested in visibility or attention in any way. If you have ever tried to take a group photo with me, you know this.
