What do other people ask you about?

Before I started helping people find their passions, I was asked by high schoolers, college students, and even seasoned veterans about what decisions they should make professionally to be happiest… I even talked a few 40+ year olds into quitting their jobs and taking on more fulfilling roles. The point is, I had people already asking me for help in pursuing there passion but… I dealt with imposter syndrome: I was too afraid to start teaching because I figured there were already so many experts out there. But finally I went for it and it worked. It was just more proof that I was the one holding myself back from doing something I loved.

The question in the title is simple: The answers may not feel feasible at times and that’s okay. But ask yourself, what do your friends ask you about? What question do you find yourself answering more often than normal? Don’t dismiss anything and follow the thread.

Roadblocks: Be aware of any mental roadblocks that negate your findings.

Prompts:
