If you have been questioning whether your current business or career is fulfilling or meaningful, that may be a sign that you’re at a crossroads.This is a common stage on our journeys where we think to ourselves, “how did I come this far, build up this business, build up this professional identity, and all of a sudden, I don't know what I want or where I’m going?”  I think the question beneath all of this is, what am I playing for? And so I wanted to have this whole episode to be a conversation to remind you that you absolutely know exactly what you're playing for. Your ability to connect with a North Star, and to go after that thing you desire, it hasn't gone anywhere. It's just being clouded right now and I want us to explore what might be causing you to feel as though your future is veiled. Let’s go.GEMS DROPPED“If you want to go and actually take full advantage of the brilliance that surrounds you… you want to be able to take that [brilliance]  in and you still need a filter through which to process that stuff. And I think reminding yourself of who you are, and what you want, both before and after events… that is incredibly important”.“This whole thing called entrepreneurship…we got into it because we were seeking to have a more unique individualized experience of our professional lives. And what that means is, the way we are going to do it is going to be unique to us, and you have it in you, you absolutely have it in you. It's just a matter of you giving yourself permission, full permission to embrace it.”STAY IN TOUCHCome and follow me on Instagram @moniquershields, and I would love your feedback so send an email to ambition@moniquershields.com.
