How to pivot and know which direction is right for you

How to pivot and know which is the right direction for you...
There are times in our lives when we simply must ask of ourselves the BIG questions that will change everything...
The kind of questions that for the most part we shove to the back of our minds because of the everyday distractions of our business lives.
With everything that is going on in the business world, this is truly a moment to 'carve out' some time to re-calibrate and deep dive into what we as individuals really want from our business lives.
If we don't do this now, chances are we never will, which is why I believe we must each 'make time' to ask and answer the BIG questions that will actually pivot us towards a more fulfilling lifestyle, one that is afforded by being more financially robust and 100 times more productive simply because we are on purpose and doing what we 'want' to do instead of what we 'should' be doing...
Each of these questions are super big picture and will initially have most people skipping over the question to the next because of not having an instant answer, which is why I would like to encourge you to STOP and answer each individual question 'before' moving on.
(1) What am I great at doing that people want to pay me to do for them?
(2) What part of my business actually makes me money?
(3) What would I do if I couldn't do that?
(4) What must I do to be financially robust?
(5) What is my core narrative to the world? (The answer to the what do I do question)
Everyone I've ever taken through these 5 simple questions, have struggled on at least 3 of them, so please do not feel overly challenged, instead see each question as conundrum that once solved will lead to a fabulous outcome.
Now all that remains is to pivot and walk forward on purpose towards achieving a lifestyle only the few truly enjoy...
