It’s not a crazy idea

The idea that you can live a different kind of life – one where your don’t depend on somebody else to tell you when and where you work and how much you are worth – is not crazy. Just because you were brought up with an employee mindset doesn’t mean that you cannot change.

Don’t tell yourself that it is impossible or that you don’t have what it takes. You are not qualified to make that judgment because you just don’t have enough information. You can’t afford to let your future depend on what you don’t know because you can learn new things. Don’t limit your future to the vision you have now. Lean on others who have different knowledge to guide you to a new future and help you determine what you need to learn.

Tell yourself. “What if…?” What if you can change your life. What would you need to learn? What skills would you need to develop to become that kind of person. Then take some action. A small action is fine. Find people who have accomplished what you would like and follow the trail they have left. Read books that help you grow your thinking and work on the skills that you will need . (Don’t let yourself think that you are incapable of being the kind of person that you need to be.)

Reading is where I suggest you start but maybe you need something more personal. Leave a comment. Ask a question. Begin the journey now.
