Let's Leave Trails, Shall We?

"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

This quote got me thinking about a couple of recent coaching clients.

Both were struggling with making some big decisions around career and work.

👻👻👻 Decisions that seemed SCARY no matter which way they went. 

They both wanted to choose the uncharted path, the snowy trail without footprints. And both were frozen with fear of the unknown.

One wanted to go work for a non-profit. One wanted to make the leap to entrepreneurship. 

And both were plagued by self-doubt!

What if it doesn’t work out?

What if I don’t know what to do if it DOES work out? 

I’ve been in this state several times over the course of my career.  And each time, when I chose the path that scared me the most, it worked out for the absolute best.  I tripped over some ruts for sure, even fell down a few times.

In the end, I GREW.

My clarity grew.

My capability grew. 

My confidence grew.
