One Powerful Tool to Clarify Who You Really Are
Half of the coaching conversations I have evolve into a discussion about making a big career change. People often feel stuck, and once they have the space to really dig into what matters to them they realize that the day-to-day grind has kept them distracted from answering one truly important question:
“Who am I, really?”
Because I work with startups a lot, I tend to attract corporate clients who have a secret dream of starting their own company. But what follows isn’t limited to entrepreneurs, and it doesn’t always mean quitting your job.
Whether you’re thinking of leaving your current role, pursuing your startup dream, or just want something different in life, read on.
Who am I?
When I was deciding to leave my consulting job, I was more than a bit lost. Luckily, I had access to two great coaches. One of them gave me an exercise that was exactly what I needed to help me figure out where to go.
I put it off for months. I wish I hadn’t.
You, though, are smarter than I was. You’re ambitious for what you want, hungry for more clarity. You’re willing to put in a little bit of time to take stock of who you really are. Who knows, it could change your life.
