When it’s a matter of survival, people are very good at making things happen.

You lose your job and are out of money … you hustle and make something happen. When you desperately need an income you’ll take anything to pay the bills.

And once you make enough money to ensure your bills are paid, you stop the hustle. You are safe and that’s all that matters. There is no need to keep looking.

But so often you end up in horrible situations. And little by little the misery sinks in.

But you won’t do anything to change your situation.

I call this place purgatory. It’s miserable, but it’s not as bad as hell (not having an income).

So many people get VERY comfortable in purgatory. This is the place they know best. They’re used to suffering.

Yes, they’d like their career situation to be better.

They’ll complain, feel sorry for themselves, rage at the system, and blame their boss. But they won’t do anything about it.

They’ll skate by … until the flames of hell start to burn their feet.

And they’ll repeat the cycle. Unless they’re willing to get uncomfortable and do something different.

As a Career Empowerment coach, getting people out of purgatory is one of my specialties. And a great way to learn is to hear how other people did it. That’s why I share people’s stories on my podcast.

After an impressive life of resilience, discipline, and triumph, James Roberts (performance and success coach) spent 2 years in the purgatory of “just skating by.” He had the opportunity to do this for the rest of his life. But he chose to do something different. Join us for a conversation on what it took for him to escape and create a life he is truly proud of.
