YOU Might Be At A Crossroad...
A crossroad is a place where roads intersect. In life, this typically involves your emotional, mental and spiritual state.
You might feel uncertain, even fearful of potentially making a misstep when at a crossroad in life. It’s important for you to know the significance of a crossroad, which is to alert you; to get your attention. It’s a when your inner spirit nudges you quite loudly, from the core of your being. This is a time in your life when it’s necessary for you to decide to do something different. When this occurs, your options are to allow everything to remain the same OR embrace opportunity to do something different in your life. Of course, it’s your choice, however, be forewarned, investing in your self; your growth is always a winner.
I know this because, through the years, life has taught me quite a bit.
At this moment when you’re reading my blog, I encourage you to inhale deeply and hold it a few seconds, then let it out slowly. Think about the past few years. Be honest with yourself.
How do you feel; emotionally, physically and financially?
Some examples of crossroads:
· Relationships
· Career growth
· Death of a loved one
· Relocation
· Health
· Faith
· Finances
Now that I have your attention, I want you to write down your response to the question above. Place your response in a safe place to ensure you’re the only person who knows your deepest, most vulnerable truths.
I encourage you to see your crossroad as an opportunity to choose to grow forward. This is a time when you can summons courage and determination from within to ensure that you become come stronger, wiser. Once you’re on the other side of your crossroad, learn to be grateful for the lessons learned. Had you not experienced what you have, you wouldn’t be the amaizing person that you are now. “Live and Learn” isn’t a quote someone invented for no reason. It’s true !
When your soul whispers, honor what it’s telling you. I chose to leave a corporate career, taking with me, knowledge from leading teams and processes for two decades. This combined with life lessons learned by being a divorced mother of two and becoming the caregiver for both of my parents, enabled me to create a blueprint as the framework of the business I launched.
Have you been at a crossroad? What decisions were made? Are you satisfied?
If you are still a work in progress and your journey continues, I invite you to “…walk by faith, not by sight.” 2 Corinthians 5:7
