Are You Feeling Trapped?

Are You Feeling Trapped?

So many of us have been, or are still trapped in jobs or careers that we absolutely despise - jobs that make us feel inadequate, not wanted or just plain stupid. Some of us have dreams that aren't given the chance to grow because we let our friends or family members squash them before they even have a chance to begin.

Growing up, I knew what I wanted to do. I wanted to be a veterinarian…that was until my parents, being the loving parents that they are, informed me that I wasn't "smart" enough. Bye bye dreams…hello reality.

Luckily for me, my love of words and music propelled me towards the direction of becoming a professional staff writer with Hyland Hills Music in Nashville, and the FOX Network in LA. I loved getting out of bed every morning because it meant I would spend my entire day writing and creating files with an amazingly creative and talented team that absolutely rocked! All was well until our entire branch was acquired by another company and our creative team was let go without notice.

I was faced with the dilemma of having to find a job that would allow me to tap into my creative side, but would also allow me to earn a pay-check.  Not an easy task in our industrial based world.

The good news is…The world is changing. Our world is no longer the industrial based world it once was. Robots and computers have replaced large assembly lines filled with people just going through the motions and wishing they were doing something else with their lives.

The internet "Connection Revolution" has completely reinvented the way we conduct business. You might be thinking…So how can this be a good thing? How can the downfall of the industrial world, and people losing their jobs be a good thing?

It's a good thing because creative folks like you and I can tap into the "Connection Revolution" and push past the negative nay-sayers so that we can achieve our dreams on a worldwide platform!

Your intuition already knows what you're supposed to be doing in life. Silence the doubt around you and follow your heart! You're not going to be able to hear the direction that your intuition is supplying you with if you don't silence the craziness around you and take a good deep look inside.

Once I stopped being desperate, grasping at every little opportunity, and I actually slowed my process down so that I could hear the direction that my soul was providing me with, things started to fall into place at an alarming pace!

Now I can honestly say that I truly feel fulfilled. I feel fulfilled because not only am I able to be creative and do what I love to do … Write… I'm also helping other business owners achieve their dreams by creating words and content that helps them achieve "their" dreams. It's a win win situation that I'm truly grateful for with all my heart and soul!

If I could find my place in this crazy world, so can you! Silence the doubt around you and find something that truly makes you feel fulfilled and happy. When you're happy, people around you are happy and the world becomes a better place!
