Wondering what to do with your life?

A lot of my clients, before they start working with me, wonder what to do with their lives.

What their next chapter should be.

Selling the business and starting a restaurant? 

Moving to Porto and becoming a Bitcoin King/Queen?

Creating something new, like a podcast, documentary or book? 

And yes, it's important to think about your future. To not get bogged down in the day-to-day.

But.

Big but. 

You want to make sure your pondering isn’t just daydreaming distracting you from what you could be doing right now.

Whenever we think about future possibilities, about opening that restaurant, building that startup, writing that bestseller, we get a nice dopamine hit.

That’s why so many people dream, but never take action.

And the free dopamine fix when you think about your future isn’t the only problem.

Your brain doesn’t want you to take action on something new.

It will tell you things like ‘Wait until you’re 100 % sure what it is you really want to do with your life.’

Which is the worst advice ever - because you will never be sure. 

The only way to figure out what you want to do is to take action.

So this weekend, instead of dreaming about all the amazing stuff you could be doing, all the options you have with your amazing brain and gifts, take some time and ask yourself the following question:

“If I didn’t have a mortgage/cats/children/major insecurities/anxiety about climate change/pandemics/mankind/[feel free to insert whatever else is bugging you], what would be the next fun, exciting thing for me?”

“What would make me dizzy with delight if it happened?” 

Do not censor yourself.

Your brain will immediately try to tell you you’re being ridiculous.

Ignore it.

Write down all the exciting things you can think of.

And then pick one.

Don't think about it. Just pick it.

It doesn’t need to be your ‘passion’.

It doesn’t need to be ‘THE thing’.

It just needs to be pretty irresistible.

Got it? Great.

Now write down five actions you can take this weekend to go after it.

And take those actions.

Have an amazing weekend!
