Gotta go my own way
We watched the entire trilogy. Me and my 7 year old daughter. Some of the lyrics we knew by heart. High School Musical. The year was 2008.
Who would have thought that exactly 10 years later I would execute on one of my favorite song’s title «Gotta go my own way»?
After 30 years in finance, the last 5 of which in our family owned and run finance boutique firm, I had to go my own way. More importantly though, I didn’t really make that decision. It came to me.
I’ve got to move on and be who I am
I just don’t belong here
I hope you understand
Never before had I been so certain, completely fearless, awake and aware.
It still feels magical. My old self obviously gave it a go at rationalizing the transformation. Ideenkanal. Find your fool workshop. Barrista course. Excise licence. Coffee truck purchase. altMBA. Bang!
I no longer believe in the principle that everything has a cause. Instead, every feeling has a voice. Pay attention. Listen. And then go your way.
