  • Why life’s detours and breakdowns can serve as opportunities for growth and realignment.

Key Takeaways:

  • When challenges arise, it’s okay to stop, feel your emotions, and reflect—but don’t stay stuck in the lay-by.
  • Look forward through the windshield of life instead of dwelling on the rear-view mirror of the past.
  • Set inspiring goals that energise you and give you something to look forward to on your journey.

Actionable Exercise:

Take a moment to close your eyes and visualise yourself driving on an open road. Imagine pulling over at a scenic spot to reflect on:

  1. Where you are right now in life.
  2. Where you want to go next.
  3. What steps you can take to get back on the road with renewed purpose.
