Left my job, found my mission, and became an entrepreneur

Quick summary

After leaving her job and feeling uncertain about her next steps, Shelly used Silva Ultramind meditation to seek guidance. A synchronistic ad led her to an entrepreneurship festival, where she met her future co-founder and discovered her mission.

Mindvalley made me an entrepreneur, which I was not sure about, but it made me an entrepreneur. I left my job six months back and I was just traveling around not knowing what to do next. Whether to find a job move back to India or stay in Dubai or move to a different city. And this one evening, I was taking Silva Ultramind quest, and I finished my meditation at night and I asked the universe to tell me where should I book my tickets. The next morning, I saw the ad which said to book your tickets for Sharjah Entrepreneurship Festival. I was not sure that I wanted to be an entrepreneur. It was in the back of my mind but I thought of giving it a try. So I booked my tickets to the Sharjah Entrepreneurship Festival. At the festival when they started sharing snippets of various entrepreneurs from around the world. And the first snippet was of Vishen, saying: "Successful people don't have a career, they have a mission." And that connected all the dots, and I realized I was at the right place. After a few minutes, I saw this lady that was sitting next to me. She had the startup. We started talking. And she offered me to join her as a co-founder of her startup. The mission is basically to provide fitness trainers at very affordable prices for everyone around the world. That's a beautiful mission to have. So now I'm in Dubai, working with the startup and fulfilling my vision and my mission. I'm an entrepreneur now.
