Our careers are not about what we create on the outside.  They're about who we become on the inside. From that perspective I'm incredibly grateful that I chose to be an entrepreneur and start my own business because it challenges me everyday to be the best possible person I can be.  

Being an entrepreneur brings me closer to to true inner peace and fulfillment, which is what we are truly seeking. My business is my like spiritual path because it made me ask these tough questions. 

Whenever I feel that I am at my wit's end and I seriously need help, I remember this incident in my life. Two years ago, on an epic bus ride from Kigali, Rwanda to Mwanza, Tanzania, I came across my own "guardian angel."

Everything was going wrong on on this bus ride and as night descended, I realized that I could actually die out here...

Do you ever feel like you're not "on the right path"? 

We tend to use this phrase "on the right path" loosely, but I've come to realize that this inner nudge is actually our truth! 

It is as if our souls know exactly where they want us to go, who they want us to become and when we have deviated away from that (usually due to fear), our souls start doing things to get your attention. 

My travels around the world have taught me many things that I couldn't learn commuting in a first-world country.

Growing up in Canada, I always knew that I wanted to explore the world and tell stories. I wanted to be a journalist and a documentary filmmaker. It wasn't until university that I got the chance (and the motivation) to pursue this dream.

Now, when young people hear my story, they often ask me, "Should I travel too?"

I always, always answer, "If you have a desire to travel, do it. It's your soul longing to grow. It means there is something out there for you to learn."

(The question that comes right after, "How did you pay for it? This is my answer.) 

Why do we crave travel? When we strip away the fancy jet planes, french croissants and Facebook airport check-ins, what's that longing to travel? 

I've learned that the desire to travel is the call of your Soul. It's that tiny voice inside that reminds you that there is more to life than what we can see if our First World Bubble. 

I ran into an old friend last week. We hadn't seen each other in over a year and he commented, "I had no idea you wanted to be an entrepreneur," to which I replied, "Neither did I!" 

I can trace my fun internships back to couple of actions that I started doing in my second year.  It started with one little decision. One decision would build a relationship, unlock an idea, or produce a particular result and next thing I knew I was flying across continents for my last two years of university. 

I've outlined what those decisions were in my new free-guide, The 3 Secret Habits Of All Outrageously Successful Students.  

I'm conflicted. My problem is that I'm trying to create my own dream career and live my passionate life while telling you how to live yours.  

So I'm making a declaration today that I will not try to tell you how to live your life.  I'll just tell you what's working for me.  (Honestly, this is what I've been doing all along, but I feel better making it clear to you :) I only ever share things that have personally worked for me.)

Here goes: I have seriously down days.  At various points in my life I thought I must have bipolar disorder, PMDD (aka. severe PMS), SAD ( aka. severe winter blues) or depression.

In my efforts to alleviate my moodiness, I went on birth control pills, cleaned up my diet, became vegetarian and even escaped last winter by jetting off to Singapore. Some things worked, but nothing for very long. 

Now I just face it, the ups and downs are part of the human condition. (Not to mention, starting a business makes highs higher and the lows lower.)  The point of life though is to ride the waves, not to numb it all out.
