Or: you’ve been stuck in the same role or field for a few years now. You know, as we all know, that the economy is terrible, that the job market is tightening up. But you also wonder if you’re really pushing yourself as hard as you could. Your partner, you observe, is doing very well despite the circumstances; you even begin to wonder if they don’t look down on you a little.

You’re making a living that, on the one hand, is excellent—you know that there are many who are far worse off. But on the other hand, you have a friend in a similar line of work who, having made just one or two different choices, now makes three time as much as you. You tell yourself it shouldn’t matter, given that global perspective, but despite yourself you can’t help but feel envious; telling yourself it shouldn’t matter just compounds your envy with guilt.

 

Some reading this have parents who demand much of them and are proud of very little. Others will have parents who, by contrast, tell them just to be happy and are otherwise supportive.

If this blend of philosophy and accountability appeals to you, we invite you to book an appointment.

These are just the sort of questions we pose to you and help you begin to answer, above all in action. Sometimes your standards are too high, and trying to meet them results in endless failure. Sometimes, indeed more often, the standards are fine, and you have more potential than you’re currently tapping into.

We offer simultaneously a deep eat exploration of these eternal questions and practical steps that aim at getting you an answer. If this blend of philosophy and accountability appeals to you, we invite you to book an appointment.
