If you know you'd like to chart your own path and a change feels due, but you’re waiting for someone to tell you to go ahead… that moment may not arrive anytime soon.
The right time is now. And if you’re employed, that’s an opportunity to start planning or even test the waters while using your current role as a smoother runway for the switch.
That was not Dan’s reality. When I met him two months ago, his role was phased out, and soon after, he was holding a job offer that looked similar to the one he had, but with lower pay. For Dan, that was the trigger. He knew something had to change, but he wasn’t sure where to start. Like many professionals I meet, the road ahead looked muddy at that type of juncture. It’s hard to evaluate next steps and face the aspects of a new identity and mindset. Wearing a new hat comfortably is a process that is best guided with the right coach.
We started with who you want to be, or see yourself as, in five years, and it was a powerful entry point. It let Dan connect to his dream and passion without being distracted by the short-term goals and messy phases.
Then came the first steps, which created the forward momentum and reinforcement that are necessary to build confidence and counter old beliefs, blocks, and assumptions.
The shift to an entrepreneur mindset is a process. But when small accomplishments start stacking up, momentum builds, and the new identity begins to solidify.
Don’t wait. Ask yourself: What’s the smallest step you can take today to start building your next chapter?
Then get a good coach.
