I’m no stranger to change and struggle. My first lesson in resilience was when I moved from the UK to Italy as a teenager.
I was thrown into a world of adult problems, from money troubles to cultural barriers, all while balancing work and a demanding academic program. By the time I got to the “real world,” I was frazzled to learn the same blocks held me back. I dropped out of university because I lacked the money. I spent my first years in a career without anything to show for it.
I realized I was spending my life waiting. Waiting for an opportunity. Waiting for recognition. Waiting for growth.
That’s when my mindset and spiritual truth aligned. I thought to myself, “If I’ve spent all this time feeling controlled, what do I have to lose by devoting the next year to taking back my control? What if I follow my own guidance?”
I took an expensive course to advance my career (and told myself I’d figure it out). I stopped waiting and relying on others. I began networking and building relationships with mentors. I ended up with 5 job offers at companies I respected, all within a few months. I got a master’s degree in my field and got an even better job that exceeded my expectations. My confidence was soaring more than it ever had.
Here’s what I learned: If you’re not getting what you want, move on. If you don’t do it for yourself, don’t think anyone else will do it for you. Advocate for yourself. You are your ticket.
I believe in the power of our thoughts, emotions, and energy. When concentrated on success, you become unstoppable. The hardest part is knocking down the belief that you’re not good enough. After that, it’s just about staying consistent with unwavering belief and positivity.
