Monday Morning Message 12.13.21 A Job, Career, or a Calling?
Three bricklayers are asked: “What are you doing?” The first says, “I am laying bricks.” The second says, “I am building a church.” And the third says, “I am building the house of God.” The first bricklayer has a job. The second has a career. The third has a calling.” ― Angela Duckworth
This morning, I’m asking for your help to launch our 2021 graduates who were sworn in as new attorneys last month into successful careers and to help them find their calling.
Employers often tell us that what distinguishes our graduates from other law schools’ graduates is grit and perseverance. It’s the difference between approaching your next chapter as a job, a career, or a calling.
