    Introduction

    Savelyeva begins by addressing the common feeling of being stuck in one’s professional life, despite having shown potential and received recognition early on. She introduces the "CLEAR WAY" framework as a transformational tool to help readers align their actions with their true desires and create a fulfilling career.

    “Many people feel stuck and confused in their professional lives. This book is for those ready to move past the ‘wishing phase’ into the ‘I am taking steps and creating a life that I actually want to live’ phase.” - Valentina Savelyeva

    The introduction sets the stage for the transformative journey the reader is about to embark on, emphasizing the importance of self-awareness and intentional action.

    C—Cultivate A State In Which Clarity Is Possible

    Clarity is a state of awareness that can be cultivated, not merely a byproduct of thinking or research. Savelyeva explains that while information gathering is essential, it is only the first step. The next step is to quiet the mind and connect with what is truly important.

    “People who are able to cultivate a practice of calming their mind so they can connect to a state of inner clarity are the most successful.” - Valentina Savelyeva

    She encourages readers to develop mindfulness practices that help them connect to a state of calm focus, enabling them to make clearer decisions about their careers. This process involves finding activities that help quiet the chatter in the mind and promote a state of mindfulness.

    • Practicing meditation or yoga to quiet the mind.
    • Engaging in activities with the intention of experiencing mindfulness and being present in the moment.

    By cultivating a state of clarity, individuals can better understand their true desires and make decisions that align with their long-term goals. This practice helps to reduce the confusion and overwhelm that often accompany career transitions.

    L—Learn How To Dream Effectively

    Successful individuals are unafraid to dream big. Savelyeva advises readers to connect with their genuine wants and dream without worrying about realism. This process involves taking risks, failing, adjusting, and ultimately creating a unique professional expression.
