Do you ever feel like life is throwing curveballs at your well-thought-out plans? 

It was almost a decade ago when I realized the goals I had spent a lifetime working toward weren’t right for me. I had been aiming at the wrong target. 

I knew I needed a new map and new destination, but couldn’t wrap my mind around walking away from the city, job, friends, and career track that had been so intertwined in my life up until that moment. It was a lot to realize all at once. 

What I soon came to understand though, was that life is not a product of “plans” we make. A happy, healthy, exciting existence is dependent upon what we do when those plans fall through. Who cares about the original game plan? Can you evolve when life presents obstacles? That’s the million-dollar question. 

Now, this isn’t meant to be a pessimistic take. Rather, it’s meant to be a realistic one. It’s meant to remind you that the courage to be imperfect has an ROI beyond comprehension. You just have to be willing to pivot and take a new path knowing that you’ll collect the answers along the way. Can you turn what doesn’t work into your next building block? Sometimes it’s that simple. Not easy, but simple. 

The plan gets you started, and the dream gets you through the door, but you still have to run the race. And when the discomfort sets in and you’re tired and weak, what will you do? Can you find ways to navigate the unforeseen? Sometimes in life, race plans change. Fine. So long as you keep moving forward, you’ll reach your finish line. 

So, step out into the world and be okay with not knowing, armed with the certainty that you will pivot until you find the key that unlocks the door. This mindset makes you invincible.
