Thanks for sharing, Jennifer. We've all done it! It's such a human thing to do. It's safer, comfortable, and easy to 'go with the flow, ' especially when choices seem to work for others. Questions like the ones raised by Susan David allow us to step back and curate what 'our why' looks like moving forward. Figuring out how to think about our 'why' AND recognise when we're at a choice point vs. auto-reacting is not easy either.
I’ve been guilty of just saying, “uh… I’m doing whatever this person is doing in their career” to fit in, but I wasn’t thinking about my “why”
