Rediscover your inner Don Draper

Spoiler alert: This post references the most recent Mad Men episode.

Donny’s back. 

He hasn’t gone and put his little Dick Whitman where it doesn’t belong yet,  but he’s rediscovered his balls, that’s for sure. 

And that’s a good thing. For Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce at least. 

Most of this season, Don has been an innefectual, neutered waste of space. His judgement has been shaky. His attention has been unfocused and his passion has been non-existent.

Without that passion, Don is useless as a Creative Director. But thanks to a long, drunken lunch break with the flirtatious, curvaceous Joan, he appears to have his mojo back.

Do you still have your passion? 

If not, find it. Or get out of the business. This industry will suck your soul if you’re heart is not in it. 

If you plan to stick around, shake things up. Take a trip. Go skydiving. Buy a dog. Do whatever it takes to reignite your fire.

Just try to avoid sullying your marriage vows. Don may be a rock star around the office, but you really shouldn’t be modeling your personal life on the indiscretions of some made-up TV character. 

That’s what reality shows are for.
