Wow, this is a great question to reflect on! For me, I really think it's energy and motivation. How do you keep yourself going in the direction of your dreams?

I need to start by having a big career dream. I am afraid to drema big. Over the last year (2020) I feel like I have lost my voice and do not even have the energy to speak up about the things that inspire me. I have lost my ability to listen to inner voice and I seem to be consumed by a lack of confidence. I am a 52 year old who chose retrenchment when my company relocated from Durban, South Africa to Dubai in 2019. I spent 2020 studying and am returning to the job market in 2021. I am finding it difficult to "sell" myself despite my years of experience. My fear is that I will settle for any job and be frustrated in the long term.
