What I want to do vs. what I can do

A friend asked me today why I did weddings and not all the other things I'm passionate about and talk about all day, like technology, business systems workflows and automations, the podcast industry, photography, and whatever else takes my interest - this month its coffee after buying my first ever espresso machine.

It's simple.

I have wanted to do so many things in my past, and I've worked hard, against all odds, forgetting my lack of skill or talent, and I've achieved those goals but realised I wasn't at my best doing those jobs.

There were easily a million people better at doing those roles than me, despite my passion, interest, and desire.

Weddings were the first thing that I didn't necessarily want to do, but everything in me just gravitated towards being the wedding celebrant I am.

I wish I was better at something cooler like being a rock star. But all of the entropy in the world lead me here, and I'm glad you're here too.
