Posted by Dave Lorenzo - Business Coach

One of my clients, Sarah, recently announced her intention to close her successful and lucrative business at the end of the year and go back to school for a graduate degree in studio art. Though she has done very well with her business, which she started a few years ago, she has decided to follow her true passion, hone her skills, and try to make it as a professional painter. It took a lot of guts to change to a path less traveled, and I applaud her for seeking out the life she really wants.

Now, Sarah is a bit fearful of her prospects for the future. The good news is that her business experience is completely transferable to future work. However Sarah decides to shape her painting career, I am highly confident that she will be successful. She knows how to create value, market her product, and leverage her abilities for the greatest gain.

Don’t be afraid of a radical change, if you feel the payoff will be worth the investment to you. People who build individual equity and continuously develop their talents attract success, whatever they do and wherever they go.
