101 The Unlock Moment Box of Keys #23: Live Where You Want, Work Where You Need

I met for lunch today with an old friend of mine. We were talking about how much of life is determined by our work – it shapes where we live, how much time we spend commuting, where we send our children to school. In reality wherever we’ve lived for the last twenty years has always been strongly influenced by the work we do, how we get there and how late we need to be in the office.My friend said to me, “I’ve always thought you should start with where you want to live, and then figure out from there what work you can do.” My immediate response was probably like yours – in the real world we don’t have that freedom. But then I thought, well who owns that freedom? We do.Who's driving your big life choices? It's today's question for reflection in the Box of Keys.--Dr Gary Crotaz, PhD: https://garycrotaz.com The Unlock Moment is hosted by Dr Gary Crotaz, PhD — master interviewer, executive coach and author.
