Worried about how to make your new career a success when there’s so much to learn?

And are you worried that you’ll waste the time and money you invested in your prior learning? It cost a lot to learn your previous subject, and you don’t want to think it will all be lost.

According to a recent YouGov poll - YouGov is a British data analytics company - 57% of British workers want to be able to work from home after the pandemic.

You have everything in place. Really, you do.

You KNOW what you want to do with your life … you just don’t seem to be able to kickstart it into action. Doubts and other things are always getting in the way.

Goals are the beacons we drive towards in our lives. And we need to adjust our course as we learn more and find what works and what doesn’t.

I got great at setting out my goals at the beginning of the year. Over Christmas I would spend time reflecting and laying out my plans for the year.

You may feel that you are powerless.

You may think you’re a victim of your circumstance. And that nobody understands just how difficult it is for you to shake free and do what you want.

One of the biggest logjams in people’s lives is caused by the feeling that they can’t stop.

They think they can’t afford to stop.

They are convinced that stopping what they’re currently doing will result in a total loss of income and that they’ll end up living in a van under a bridge.

“I’m waiting for something better to turn up.”

“I’ll just hang on for a bit longer, till an opportunity presents itself.”

“The perfect job for me must be out there …”

You’ve got all these ideas, these plans … a new career, writing a book, starting a business, moving house … but it’s not happening!

I hear people say this, and I think - “but what else have you tried?”

You see, you are more than you think - wayyyy more!

And limiting your possibilities to what you’ve tried before is never going to open the door to anything new.

I hear frequently that people have a desire to make changes in their life, but … BUT BUT BUT - there follow lots of buts.

Your brain should be your servant. But sometimes it’s your master. You think of something you’d like, and your lizard brain jumps in and says, “Danger! Get back in the cave!”

What they’re saying is that the men seem to have the self-confidence that they feel they’re lacking. The men’s ideas are considered more important.

Now, this is not a man-bashing session - far from it. We all have to work or live with people of both sexes. So we need to learn a bit about what makes them tick!

How many times have you had a great idea?

You’ve loved it, nurtured it, imagined it.

You’ve got excited about it, you’re feeling it, you’re looking forward to it …

I was talking about “The Obstacles are the Path” the other week.

And I thought it would be helpful to give you an illustration of what I mean.

I knew I wanted to help people change their lives. I felt I had a message. I'd gone through a lot and I wanted to smooth the path for others.

Decisions are easy when you follow your heart! No anxiety, no headaches - just know what is right, and do it!

What springs into your mind when you say the word “Boundary”?

If you’re me, you think of Cricket!

Yes, really, that’s the first thing I think of when I hear the word Boundary.

We all go through different experiences in our lives. Some good, some bad.

And it’s how we MANAGE those experiences that shapes us as human beings, and allows us to make the best of the hand we’ve been dealt.

So many people are disappointed that their life is not wall-to-wall happiness and joy. But NOBODY’S life is like that!

We’re all human. And we all share similar human conditions and situations.

Ever wondered why you seem to end up down the same cul-de-sac of answers every time you ask yourself something?
