Kathy Brunner says that you must have a Plan B where you hope for the best but plan for the worst. She's an expert in helping people either change career paths or retire and become full-time entrepreneutrs. 70% of her clients end up starting a business and 30% simply need a career change. Many times, her clients initially come to her feeling burned out, a disconnect, or no way to control her work day.

Her solution is to ask a series of thought-provoking questions, such as:

What decisions in the past have you regretted? (very few, so take the risk that improves your life)
What decisions have you made based on the opinions or suggestions of others? (most likely ones that you're unhappy with today)
What decisions are you glad you made? (usually, those that involved taking a leap of faith)

If you're ready to break the cycle of being too comfortable, then listen in to what Kathy has to say.
