Are you at crossroads?



Are you at crossroads and you are not sure of which road to take? This is for You!! Some few years ago I was in the same situation, I was at crossroads and struggled so hard to figure out which road was the best for me and my family. I was working in one of the biggest corporate companies in the country..to many it was the right place to be and everyone was happy including my family members. I would leave home as early as 5:30am and return back home at 9:30 pm. It reached a point when I felt our daughter could no longer even recognize me as her  mother. But I gave it( Job ) my best by meeting the targets. After sometime my contract ended and I started applying for jobs. After 4 months of searching here and there the same corporate company called me back and actually gave me a much better offer which I took in, but truth be told targets were even more harder than the 1st one..4 months into the new contract one of the companies I had applied too called me for the interview and this is where I stood at crossroads wondering whether I should leave working for this big company and join this 'other' company...I had to make a decision either stay and chase my career or move and find myself and be their for my family...I weighed the options ,some of my workmates were telling me how it would be funny leaving a big company and joining some small unknown company. I listened to every advice that came in but at the end I had to listen to my heart looked at both offers and I decided to leave the big company....I must say it was a good decision for me to make because I get time for my family &our daughter, I get time to do my side hustles and above all I have been able to discover who I am. I don't know which  crossroads you are standing at, it could be an abusive relationship? It could be work related, Business, or anything else. My dear you can't keep  standing at the cross roads...look at those roads ,analyze the risks, the advantages and disadvantages that come with taking either roads ,look for advice from professionals and friends you might trust but at the end please genuinely listen to your heart and make that decision . You just have to start Walking!!
