In the June Issue:
Change is the only constant in this universe. Things are either growing, or dying. Society is rapidly progressing. People are always developing. Specifically, individuals evolve in their purpose, values, beliefs, identity, and priorities as they accumulate life experience.
The entrepreneur dilemma
As an entrepreneur, what this means for you, is that you are unlikely to be ‘married’ to one professional path for life. Instead, you may often find yourself evolving in new directions from a current career or business that was previously perfect.
This is natural, but isn’t always easy to navigate.
At the start, you might not realise that there is a growing misalignment. It could start as a small feeling of dread on Sunday nights. Mornings may become increasingly slow. Maybe you notice you’re becoming easily fatigued. Something isn’t quite right, but you can’t identify what.
In contrast, you might acknowledge that you have a new business idea that excites you, but you are confused whether it’s truly the next best direction for you.
If either of the above scenarios relate to you, here are six signs you SHOULD pivot or pursue that business idea:
1.The idea has kept popping up over many months or years, no matter how many times you've tried to justify otherwise.
You can suppress something as much as you’d like, but unfortunately, this misalignment within yourself won’t just disappear. It will only grow to become more frequent and intense.
2. It's a career that you would still pursue if you won the lotto.
You know that classic question ‘What would you do if you won the lotto?’ Well, your answer says a lot about your heart’s true calling.
3. Doing this work would create change in this world in a way that you care about.
Having something to live for that is greater than yourself ignites a fire within you that lasts a lifetime. What better way to create ongoing energy, motivation, and work ethic that leaves others questioning how you do it? Not to mention that having a ‘What can I GIVE’ mentality instead of ‘What can I GAIN’ is a major factor to long-term success and happiness.
4.It's what you think about when you're in the shower and in bed.
These are times when there are least distractions from the external world. So if your mind keeps turning to the same idea unprompted, it becomes pretty clear what truly matters to YOU.
5. It feels like a calling and, deep down, you know you are made for this.
There are certain quantifiable signs to determine your next path, but there is something to say about your deep intuition. Your heart doesn’t lie!
6. It's something that feels far away, but you do see yourself doing this eventually.
Sometimes, it’s hard to see the possibilities of your future when when you are so caught up in your current situation. When you start with the end, you get clarity on what your highest potential is. Because reality is always created in two steps: First in your mind, then in actuality.
