This next chapter is yours to define

For most of your life, things were defined for you.

Career paths. Responsibilities. Expectations.

You followed a structure whether you realized it or not.

But now?

There’s more space.

And for some men, that’s exciting.

For others, it’s uncomfortable.

Because now the question becomes:

“What do I actually want?”

Not what’s expected.
Not what’s safe.
Not what you’ve always done.

But what you want this next chapter to look like.

I recently spoke with a friend about my unhappiness and his response was “But what about you? You’ve mentioned everyone else in your life, except yourself.“

Man that hit home! Can you relate?

Have you found yourself in a never ending cycle of keeping everyone else happy, but not giving your own happiness any thought?

Its not selfish to think about what you want in this next chapter of your life.

In fact, it requires honesty. Getting honest with yourself. And then sharing that with those closest to you.

Because no one’s going to define it for you anymore.

That’s your job now.
