recently I was talking to a continuous improvement leader
and he asked me a question I’d never been asked before 🤷
he had reached out to me a few days before
sent me a DM asking if we could talk
said he had heard me on a recent podcast and resonated with my story📘
“You are literally doing what I would love to be doing full time.”
an engineer and quality leader for most of his professional career
he was ready to do more⏫
to fulfill his purpose
so we hopped on a call and I started to learn more
found out he had been working hard to grow and develop himself as a leader
finding unconventional ways to move forward⏭️
as a husband and father he wanted to provide
stable paycheck and benefits💵
but now he had this niggling feeling
he was ready to do more
break free from the corporate world🔗💥
to go out on his own
consult
mentor
coach
as we continued the conversation we talked about the possibility of working together
then came the question I never saw coming
“do you think I’m ready for this?” 💣
I had to pause…wonder internally
remind myself what I had seen and heard
I had that feeling from his messages and our 80 minute conversation
my mind, rewinding back my journey to take the leap
was I ever really ready?
“yes” I said with a smile on my face😃
“you are ready for this!”
what about you? I would love to hear from you.
if you were to be asked this question today how would you answer?
