Essay: 'We are what we believe'

| | Comments (2)

"This I Believe" is an ongoing essay series about the personal beliefs, philosophies and core values that guide people's lives. The essays air regularly on NPR.

Today, a lawyer described his former self as the "typical Type-A: an ambitious Harvard lawyer on the rise who moves to Silicon Valley during the go-go years to help start and run a succession of companies. ... All head, no heart; all drive, no passion."
