Do you ever cling to old dreams and goals, fearing that letting go might mean failure? In today’s episode, we’re diving into when it’s time to pivot or change direction. Changing your mind doesn’t mean failure—it can actually lead to more joy and fulfillment. Let’s explore 8 indicators that show it might be time to quit or shift your path.

Here’s a simple list of the 8 indicators that it’s time to pivot:

1. Lack of Joy in Your Current Path
   If your current goal no longer brings you joy, it might be time for a change.

2. Misalignment with Your Values
   When a goal no longer reflects your core values, it’s time to rethink it.

3. Feeling Stagnant
   If you’re not growing or evolving, consider a new direction.

4. Clarity Through Prayer
   Seek God’s guidance and be open to changes He reveals through prayer.

5. Persistent Resistance
   When every step feels forced, it may be a sign to pivot.

6. A Sense of Completion
   Sometimes, we outgrow a goal—it’s okay to celebrate progress and move on.

7. New Opportunities Align Better
   When something new better aligns with your passions or talents, it might be time to shift.

8. Physical or Emotional Burnout
   If a goal is draining you beyond healthy limits, it’s time to consider a new path.
