Never Give Up … But maybe take a different path

We are certainly in a weird and unprecedented place. COVID, unemployment, stock market fluctuations, Black Lives Matter, fascism in the Republican Party, loss of leadership on the World Stage, and on and on. Some of this will fade away. Some of this will completely change the way we view our lives, our careers, and our finances.

The famous failures to the left all had one thing in common. They proceeded towards their next adventure when the most common of logics would have told them some thing different:

  • Go get a job
  • Time to do something else
  • Listen to your friends
  • You are not worthy
  • You do not deserve

With each one of these people, for the little I know about them, it seems that they forged ahead with what they believed in. Some chased happiness, some chased artistic expression, some chased power and some chased enterprise. But they all started with one step out of the rain puddle they found themselves sitting in.

Today we are faced with some of the same issues. COVID might simply bring to the surface that you don’t want to go back and work in a crowded office anymore. Unemployment might drive you to start your own business. Stock market fluctuations might cause you to devalue the priority you place on an insane growth of your investments. Whatever it is, it is your life and it is your story to write.
