Opis

3 years ago I made a huge decision. I decided to leave my big job of vice president at one of the top 5 IT consulting firms in the world. Everyone was surprised. They were surprised because I had spent the past 25 years building my career to be exactly where I was. I had reached the top level I always wanted. And, for a while, it was satisfying. And then, not so much! So I went through months of doubts and worry because I did not understand why I was dissatisfied. During those few months, my mom died, my dad died and one of my good friend died and she was so young. When you go to so many funerals, you kind of wonder what it's all for. And then you start thinking; life is too short to be dissatisfied for 60 or 70 hours a week. In my new job, I was no longer hands on. I was far from the real action and far from the people who get the job done. I did not like that. I also suddenly realized that I did not want to do the 9 to 5 anymore living only for weekends and vacations. I did not want to continue on the rat race. So I took a big gamble. I wanted to start my own consulting firm and I wanted to become an executive coach. 3 years later, I can tell you; nothing went as planned!
