How to know when to walk away.

And create more abundance than ever before.

Walking away - the act of leaving behind something that no longer serves us - is never easy. The fact that walking away has so many negative connotations is the reason people don’t do it enough. Yet it is an essential skill - for fulfilment, for safety, for peace, for survival - that we need to cultivate.

I thought I’d finely honed this skill after so much life upheaval over the last 12 months, but for some time now I have had the feeling that a project I recently said yes to as part of my portfolio career wasn’t the right move for me.

Immediately upon walking away from the project (respectfully and before it began with nil impact to anyone) I knew I had made the right decision. I hit CTRL ALT DLT on a part of my mind that had spent countless hours ruminating on this decision, when I could have saved myself all of that time by ultimately doing what I knew was right in the first place. I was wise enough to know better, but not wise enough to jump off the sinking ship apparently.

The next thing that happened blew my mind, reaffirming all my beliefs around abundance and authenticity when something I had been working towards was dropped into my lap by the universe.
