Don't Settle

I recently asked this question on Instagram because it was a question I also began asking myself. I began wondering if there was more to life. Was I meant for more? Was I fulfilling my true potential? I decided the answer was no, and I had to figure out what I was going to do about it. After 8 years with one organization that was filled with mostly success, I found myself complacent. I arrived at a point where I felt like I could do the job in my sleep and still be successful. It’s at that point I realized that I was no longer growing. It was time to take a step of faith, understand that I was worth more than what I was doing, and find a path that provided me more opportunity for new challenges as well as personal and professional growth. It became clear to me that living in uncertainty was less of a compromise than doing what I was doing for one more day. So, with one month of vacation pay in the bank, I resigned my position in search of the next chapter in my life. I’m not sure how the next chapter starts yet. All I am certain of is that it was time for the previous chapter to end. My encouragement to you…If you find yourself complacent, unhappy, feeling like you were put on this earth to do more…Don’t wait. Find your purpose. Life comes in seasons, and none of them last forever. Don’t miss what greatness was truly meant for you because you were to scared to let go of what made you comfortable.
