Ambition is a phrase typically reserved for people closer to the start of their career.

But today we're talking about what ambition actually looks like at mid-life.

Because while we might still enjoy what we do, the truth is at mid-career we have a more complicated life.

That are many things vying for our attention.

And most of us have to figure out a way to balance the demands of our life with the demands of a career that is at or approaching it's peak.

At the same time, mid-career is also a time when our perspective is starting to shift.

We realize that the road in front of us is finite.

And we become more aware of wanting to spend our remaining time doing things that matter to us.

Things that might look very different from what we're doing right now.

So today we're talking about how to think about what you want now.

How you're feeling everyday in your current role.

And we're discussing the benefit of exploring possibilities for your future that might look very different from your life today.

I offer questions to ask yourself as it relates to where you are and where you want to go.

So you ensure the time remaining in your career is time you'll spend doing something you love.

Ambition is not a topic reserved for the young.

Mid-life is a time to reignite that fire in your belly so you recalibrate and re-fire into a very meaningful next act.
