I've always been the architect of my own happiness. Whether that meant virtually ignoring my initial job description as a young consultant at Deloitte, or creating my own company culture as a CEO (a work that's always in progress), I've aligned my career and my environment - the people around me - to my own personality and values system.
I bring this up as we head into Independence Day weekend because I want to remind you how much power you have over your life. You have the right -- the responsibility -- to make your world what you need it to be.
Just as I tell every new employee at Greenlight, part of your job description is to create the fun environment that you want to live and work in. So if you have an idea, run with it. If you see a problem, solve it. And if you need a change, ask for it.
As Maya Angelou said, "If you don't work, nothing will."
Warmest, Keith
