Why I do What I Do

     Those of you who know me know that I spend a lot of time giving back or as I call it trying to make the world a better place. I'm often asked by people why I do these things. I have a variety of anecdotal stories that I tell to answer the question depending on my mood. The reality is that I am a huge believer in reverse engineering everything. Or as Stephen Covey calls it beginning with the end in mind. 
     I have spent some time thinking about what I want to see when I get near the end and look back on my life. A quote I really like is: "One day your life will flash before you eyes. Make sure it's worth watching." That's the reason. I want to leave the world a better place. We all need a main goal that drives our life story. I can't think of a better one.
