Benjamin J Harvey:
Living And Learning
Authentically
T
here is no doubt that when you are doing something you truly love, you will thrive. You will be able to reach your true potential. You will make a difference to the lives around you. However, sometimes, finding out what it is that you love seems an impossible task. Benjamin J Harvey found himself in this position not that long ago. He struggled with a difficult past, was in $137,000 of debt, unhealthy and unhappy. After experiencing the tragedy of losing a close friend to suicide, Benjamin realised he needed to make
some changes. Authentic, bold changes that would alter the course of his life for good. “For many years, I had been looking into different personal development techniques, but what changed everything for me was when I decided to invest in myself,” he recalled. “I spent $17,895 on educational personal development programs while I was still $137,000 in debt. I couldn’t afford it, but I made the decision anyway. What I learnt is that whatever you want to get in life, all you need to do is learn something new and then apply it. Education really is the secret to success.” yourcareermagazine.com
