Once people find out I’ve given notice at my corporate job, the next question is always, “So, now what will you do?” Those who know me as a yoga teacher assume I will plow myself into that career full-time. Those who know me as a writer assume that will be my singular pursuit. And those who have worked with me as a product developer figure I’m heading off to the freelance world. My answer: I’m doing all of it.
My leap from my current job had very little to do with that job and a whole lot to do with the kind of life I’m designing. I want the freedom to work out my passions every single day. My singular passion is to help people live extraordinary lives and I do that in a few ways:
1.) I teach yoga to help people cultivate a sense of well-being that they can take into their lives every day
2.) I write stories that inspire and ignite people’s imaginations
3.) I develop useful products and services that people love
Those are my goals, every day, everywhere I go, in everything I do.
So, now what will I do? Exactly what I’ve always done, but now it always will be on my own terms.
