“Surround yourself with people who remind you more of your future than your past.”
Dan Sullivan, Strategic Coach
Moving from Newfoundland to Calgary five years ago, living up to this quote was easy. Besides a few friends from home, nearly everyone was someone new and therefore not a part of my past. It was the first time in my life I'd gotten to completely design what I was doing and who I was doing it with. I didn't have any roots in this new place.
Almost five years later, I'm trying to figure out what's a part of the past and what's a part of the future. Who was playing a leading role in the last 5-10 years and may be stepping into a supporting one now? What new characters will come forward? What's the theme in this act?
P.S. Thank you to Benjamin P. Hardy for his Medium post that inspired my blog today.
