Inner navigation system
Feeling done, complete, time to move on?
After 21 years I knew I was done with my corporate life. The next step was in front of me waiving a flag. We all have an internal compass that helps us discern our direction. At that time for me it was to balance my driven corporate lifestyle with activities and work that brought out my creative feminine side. Today I do consulting and real estate. This balance works for me.
Even if you are not contemplating a change, listening to your internal compass provides you with good information.
Where is your inner compass pointing? Are you paying attention?

A few days ago I was sitting in the room of a young man who had been hospitalized for diabetes complications. As I was listening to him I saw my own life reflected in his words, in his history…and knew right there and then that it had been my inner compass which directed me to make the bold move of leaping into a new direction for my professional development. This young man was stuck in his history, as I would have been had I not listened to the direction that my compass was leading me, no matter how stubborn my mind would be about not moving on.
Thank you Judy, thank you for reminding me of the unfolding nature of my reality.

Thank you for sharing your experience. You had the courage to take those bold steps and I am sure the process was not sudden nor one where you knew what was the next step at all times. Life is indeed an unfolding of experiences and with courage as our partner, lead us on in the right direction. Lets keep on keeping on! The show is not over yet!

Thank you both for the reminder. Thank you Kati for sharing your story. I have been wondering if I made the right move, two years ago, leaving my job and never looking back except for recently when I have been wondering aobut balancing my life with self reliance and growing my business.
Your story about the young man really hit a nerve. Where if I had kept on doing what I was doing, I too would be stuck in a story.
I can move on, and am glad I took the leap, though it’s been somewhat hard at times, I know I am in a better place now than I was then.
Thank you.

Thank you all for the inspirational blogs! I am so contemplating a change in both location and from the healthcare world. I am waiting patiently for the “what’s next” path. As I am paying attention to my internal compass I feel as though I’m preparing myself to give birth to something that is beyond my imagination. I applaud you all for taking the leap and setting the way for others like myself to follow. Lots of Love!

Big leaps start with awareness and intention. Onward!
