60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday: What to Do When Facing Personal & Professional Crossroads?

Hello to you listening in Gondomar, Galicia, Spain!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.

I am often asked how to begin the next story chapter of life when there’s no clear path ahead. In truth, we really don’t see the path so much as we make the path while walking it.

But that might be little comfort in the beginning when you’re standing at the crossroads.

In my experience choosing a direction and setting out with curiosity and determination - taking that first step - perhaps the one we don’t want to take - is the key that opens the way ahead.

Following are several visionary questions for you. Choose the one that speaks to where you are right now and invite it to walk along with you like friends on a trail:  

1. What story are you meant to tell that only you living your life with your wisdom and your experiences could tell?

2. Imagine you’re looking back at yourself as an elder woman - content, satisfied, knowing you got it right. What would you say made it all worthwhile?

3. What delighted you, intrigued you, fed your curiosity when you were younger than you are now?  

4. Who were you before you learned you were supposed to worry that money doesn’t grow on trees?

Sometimes the most powerful questions are the ones that help us discover who we really are beneath all the "shoulds" and practical concerns. Reconnecting with your truest self after years of layered expectations and external pressures comes from trusting what you know rather than adding more information or strategies.
