Be Your Own Hero!
As an employee, you strike a bargain with your employer. You’re paid, offered opportunities to grow personally and professionally, and be part of something bigger than yourself. In exchange, you are expected to keep less-than-desirable character traits under wraps and become the person they want you to be.
When I went independent at the age of 54, I discovered I had unwittingly struck another bargain: While I was free to make my own decisions and run my business the way I wanted to, I also suffered through financial worries, doubts, and, worse of all, the nagging feeling that I was failing and making poor choices.
I also had extended moments of the kind of loneliness that forces you to confront yourself, your weaknesses, and your demons. I eventually (re-)learned and accepted who I was – warts and all. I now celebrate that person and his accomplishments every day.
And I’ve learned an important lesson that I try to pass on as much as possible: It’s not what you do that defines your life, but it’s who you are… and only you can make that happen!
