Wat is wrong with me?
This is what I thought for many years.
I had it all….
✰ A permanent job with a great salary
✰ Interesting projects and a lot of freedom to fill my role the way I wanted
✰ Many vacation days that allowed me to take time off to go sailing and to travel
✰ Many opportunities to travel and meet colleagues across the globe (OK, this was before the pandemic..)
But was I really happy? No ….something was missing for me.
It took me a while to find out that I get energized when I help others to grow and develop.
✰ Helping them to become the best version of themselves
✰ Helping them to deal with their challenges and overcome obstacles
✰ Helping them to be successful in their role and make a difference
✰ Helping them to feel fulfilled and happy
I knew what I wanted, now it was a matter of getting there.
I tried to find or create my ideal job in the company that I worked in for years. The company that fulfilled many, but not all, of my fundamental needs….
Unfortunately, this did not work out. Apparently my destiny was different.
So, it was time to move on…..to break free of the golden handcuffs. To leave the “gouden kooi” as we say in the Netherlands.
There was nothing wrong with me. It was just time for a change and a great deal of courage to make the step into the big unknown.
Now that I made this decision, I feel more alive than ever before and fully go for it!
