“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all
-Hellen Keller-“
Being in transition can be beneficial if it is purposeful and with intent.
Change is the one constant in life. And yet, we are often surprised when it comes. We as humans regularly desire something better, different, and not the way things are. But we fight tooth and nail to prevent anything from changing. Living in our own imaginary construct of reality is comforting. And we still want it to be different because we are not happy with the life the world has given us.
And their lies the lie, we have been feeding ourselves for so many years. The life the world has given us is exactly the life we have asked for, whether we like it or not.
And we can make a change. If you want to transition from who you are now, to who you want to be. Step up and do it. Become the leader in your own life and stop letting others lead you. It will not be easy or happen overnight. You will stumble and fall but get up and take one more step forward. You will only fail if you stop trying.
I have decided to transition my life to something better. I could have stayed where I was, with a good job, comfortable living arrangements, and family to support me.
If you are curious, I took the below picture during my drive out of Florida. I was at this location 15 or so years ago, and I remembered it distinctly. I chose to route my drive so I could take a picture of it
Follow That Dream. I know you have one.
I challenge you to make your dreams come true. Pull out a notepad and write down 10 things you want to do, 10 things you want to have, and 10 things you want to be. They cannot be things that have already happened in your life. Be wild, go way outside the box, and dream big. You have nothing to lose except maybe the life you really do not want.
You must be willing to give up who you are, to become who you want to be. Reach out to me, I will support you and your ventures to the best of my ability. Do not ask for money.
