It used to be that you could just pick something anything a (profession/career/business) where your skills best served you and enter that business space and “do well.”
Some people can still do that (not many), but one thing I can speak to directly is that the few who can still pull it off ARE NOT: happy, fulfilled, living their bliss, loving their space.
WHY?!
Because you aren’t:
your previous job/business
your skills
your expertise
the thing people think you are (tell you to be/know you as)
Somehow, someway we’ve completely forgotten why we do what we’ve been doing and auto pilot has kicked in and we just approach things in such a mundane and systematic “drone style” zombie-walk.
When you’re in alignment with your vocation you know it, and in THAT space you create things that: matter, burn you with insight, and fulfill you in ways money (ego) never could.
