Does this sound familiar? You find a new thing. You’re certain this is THE thing. It all makes sense! You get started with tons of energy… but then you hit a wall. It all feels wrong. You bail. Find a new thing and the loop starts all over.

If you can relate. This episode is for you!!!

Stick until the end for a checklist that can help you decide whether to stick to the path or give up the thing you’re currently working on!
