I’m sharing this because not a day goes by without someone sharing their career frustrations and aspirations with me. I’m not a career coach, nor a guru—nor do I aspire to be one. I simply made my own career shift, and suddenly, everyone wants to know how.

Sure, I’m happier now, but here’s the catch—I don’t have the answers. No one does. The magic key is simple yet game-changing: “𝙒𝒉𝙖𝒕 𝒅𝙤 𝙮𝒐𝙪 𝙬𝒂𝙣𝒕 𝒕𝙤 𝙙𝒐?”

Some say it was easier for me. “𝑌𝑜𝑢’𝑣𝑒 𝑔𝑜𝑡 𝑎 𝑣𝑎𝑠𝑡 𝑛𝑒𝑡𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑘.” “𝑌𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑟𝑒𝑝𝑢𝑡𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑒𝑑𝑒𝑠 𝑦𝑜𝑢.” “𝑌𝑜𝑢’𝑟𝑒 𝑓𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑖𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑦 𝑠𝑒𝑐𝑢𝑟𝑒.” …excuses they craft for themselves.

The key for change is to pause, reflect, and answer, “𝑾𝙝𝒂𝙩’𝙨 𝙨𝒕𝙤𝒑𝙥𝒊𝙣𝒈 𝒚𝙤𝒖?” What is preventing you from transitioning from what someone implied you should do to what you truly want to do?

Truth is, it’s often our mental blocks. Fear of risk, failure, judgments, and others’ opinions (Your partner, parents, friends, colleagues, or even people you don’t know…)—these thoughts shackle us.

So if your current situation is bothering you, seize the change you want to make. And remember, 𝒚𝙤𝒖𝙧 𝙝𝒂𝙥𝒑𝙞𝒏𝙚𝒔𝙨, 𝒏𝙤𝒕 𝒋𝙪𝒔𝙩 𝙮𝒐𝙪𝒓 𝒑𝙖𝒚𝙘𝒉𝙚𝒄𝙠, 𝒅𝙚𝒇𝙞𝒏𝙚𝒔 𝒚𝙤𝒖𝙧 𝙨𝒖𝙘𝒄𝙚𝒔𝙨. It’s never too late to chase happiness. 🌟🚀
