In life, there are significant moments that change the direction we go. There are also big moments we choose not to take for fear of the unknown and the amount of change all at once.
Many people say it is these moments that are necessary to pursue what you want out of life. And, there is some truth to that.
However, there are so many opportunities to take small steps toward what you want. Little pivots that add up over time show what you can make that big moment easier.
This perspective is shared fervently by Elizabeth Miles. Her platform, Power to Pivot, helps us take those little pivots and appreciate the value that gives us on our path to the lives we want to live.
