The challenge is how to break free of letting everyone else control your life and to create a career with heart. In the last blog I gave the intuitive answer to this dilemma.
This is the logical answer with practical questions to begin to break free of being a puppet on a string for other people's agenda. Brainstorm and answer with the first thought that pops into your head:
- Who and what drains you? . . is toxic to you being all you can be?
- What fuels you? When is the last time you did these things?
- How would you have to think, feel, see and/or act differently to begin to put "heart" into your career path. Think small. People change in sixteenths of an inch.
To do more of what fuels you means doing less of what drains you. The secret is learning to say no to toxic events and people with respect and dignity for yourself and others.

Pick your favorite right and repeat it like a mantra as often as necessary. Know that may be 50 times a day. Don't expect yourself to believe it. Just say it and move ahead in spite of your stuff.
