When I think about Independence Day, I know thatย Freedomย is what I believe is our deepest yearning. Free to be ourselves. Free to pursue our dreams without restrictions. Free of financial worries. Free of unfulfilling work. Free of fear. Free to live from our true nature. The problem is we get caught up in our daily lives waitingโฆfor more time, money, that milestone, those kids to launch, Medicare to kick in, a sign of certainty. And what we gain by waiting is a bunch of the woulda, coulda, shouldas. Let Shel Silverstein Inspire Your Career Changeย I read this poem recently from master storyteller Shel Silverstein.ย It gave me one simply goal…to do. No more waiting to feel freedom. Woulda-Coulda-Shouldas by Shel Silverstein All the Woulda-Coulda-Shouldas Layin’ in the sun, Talkin’ bout the things They woulda-coulda-shoulda done… But those Woulda-Coulda-Shouldas All ran away and hid From one littleย did. Now is the time to set ourselves free and claim our freedom and our own personal Independence Day. Start that job search. Sign up for that class. Hire a career coach. Write that first chapter.
