"Many of us are asking three questions today in regard to our work: Should I just be responsible and get a paycheck anywhere I can? Should I pursue my passion and find work that I love? Should I forget about money and devote myself to a worthy cause?  \r\n\r\nFortunately, we don\u2019t have to choose.  And we\u2019ll have more success if we don\u2019t settle for less than combining all three elements.  \r\n\r\nDiscover your passion.  Do work that blends that passion and gives you significant income.  Be responsible, pay your bills and have money left over.  Make a difference and change the world. There\u2019s nothing wrong with wanting to have it all.  And today\u2019s business models create plenty of options.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSocial Entrepreneurship really does provide a way to do good while doing well.  Pura Vida Coffee has as their motto:  \u201CIt\u2019s better to give than receive. Unless you can do both.\u201D  TOMS Shoes says, \u201CWith every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need.  One for One.\u201D \r\n\r\nEthical Capitalism simply implies that normal for-profit businesses are doing things that are socially, spiritually, ethically, and ecologically responsible.  At Wisdom Meets Passion we are able to give free workshop materials to prisons, halfway houses and schools because we have profits generated by the our daily business sales.  \r\n\r\nThere\u2019s also a relatively new corporate entity.  In addition to C Corp, S Corp, and the LLC, we now have an option to be a B Corporation.  B Corps are a new type of corporation which uses the power of business to solve social and environmental problems.\r\n\r\nThe lines have softened between nonprofit and for-profit.  I tell people that our company is a \u201Cnot-only-for-profit\u201D organizations.  You can address your passion, the needs of the world, and your desire to be wealthy all at the same time.  There are many ways to make a difference and generate reasonable profits at the same time.\r\n\r\nOur goal, in the Wisdom Meets Passion community is to show how work that is an authentic fit will do the following:\r\n\r\n\u2022 Integrate your skills, personality traits and passions\r\n\u2022 Provide a sense of meaning, accomplishment, and fulfillment\r\n\u2022 Be a person\u2019s greatest vehicle for living out God\u2019s purpose and calling\r\n\u2022 Ensure an unexpected flow of income and ultimate wealth\r\n\r\nI encourage you to pursue your passion, devote yourself to a worthy cause and make a great living.  It does not have to be an either/or.  Don\u2019t settle for less than both.  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
