New Horizons

Posted by Lisa | Posted on 17-04-2009

An acquaintance is entering new territory. As CEO of a company that is being sold, he finds himself at what could be conflicting personal and professional crossroads. Although he’s a little foggy about the future, I was struck by how excited he is about exploring new opportunities.

He has been researching new businesses, where he can leverage what he did with his prior organization. He’s looked into auditing classes. He’s sort of thinking about taking a vacation, but doesn’t seem too excited about that.

The point is, he’s taking action. He’s not wallowing in the uncertainty of the transition.

If you feel like you’re wallowing right now, take some action. It will help you move forward.
