I believe that personal development & business development are 100% linked. If you’re not aligned with yourself, you won’t be as happy and fulfilled as you’d like to be. Be successful, yes. Try to seek a work/life balance, sure. But start being aligned first.
Alignment is when you live in harmony with your values, goals and intentions. You love doing what you do, you feel a sense of relief and calm because everything in your life ‘feels right’. In other words: you are in tune with who you truly are.
When I figured out what the notion of Alignment was, everything made sense. I always knew that my career wasn’t matching my ambitions, goals and values. I always felt out of place in the different cities I lived in. I didn’t feel grounded to where I was supposed to be. That’s why everyday I am trying to work toward my Alignment. And launching my first company was one of the first steps.
If you feel that something is ‘off’ in your life, perhaps it means that you are not fully aligned with the person you need (and deserve) to be.
Alignment is about finding your flow, and letting go of others expectations, useless noise and society’s norms — preventing you from seeking your own path and finally owning who you are.
So, do you feel aligned in your life?
