Finding Your Compass

It took me a long time to find what really guides me. I’ve done the work: personality tests, journaling, reflection, feedback, books, theories. Maybe for some people it clicks quickly. For me, it didn’t.
I thought I found it many times. But time is the real test. What holds up across years, challenges, and big life shifts? Only through trying, learning, and adapting did I land on what actually sticks.
For me, it’s three things:
Love (my girls, family, friends). Laugh (find joy, don’t take life too seriously). Level Up (keep growing, keep evolving).
That’s the compass I come back to when I feel lost or off-track. It helps me decide where to put my energy, what to say no to, and what really matters: even when life’s messy.
Bottom line:
Finding your compass takes time. It’s not one moment of clarity: it’s a series of tests. But once it clicks, it gives your life direction, even when everything else feels uncertain.
