Clarity

There was a moment of clarity when I woke up this morning. It felt weird and amazing at the same time. It was about living the life captured in my mind. And the moment I realized that it was possible for me to achieve that life.

“Go confidently in the directions of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined”

I go about my days living these words. I know that what might seem like a obstacle is really another road leading me to where I want to be.

I had an interesting conversation with one of my business partner last night. She was so excited for an opportunity that came her way. We talked about our vision, how our daily work grind is just that, the daily grind. "It is what you do when you get home that draws energy into your life." is what she said.

 What are you doing in your daily life that is getting you one step closer to your dreams and goals?

My moment of clarity: My family slept over and I had to wake up to get ready for work. It was one of the few times they would have been at my house on a Monday morning. But I treasured it. I woke up and just looked at all of their sleeping faces and something in my heart hurt. The moment that I realized that this is what I wanted, this was my vision. It was about feeling so much love in a room and then I realized that I would soon be leaving the people I loved and to spend my day people I hardly knew. I stopped breathing altogether. And that was it. I knew that I couldn’t do this much longer.  I knew that when I have kids I wouldn’t be able to leave them each morning. It would break me bit by bit. I’ve heard my co-workers talk about how painful it is to leave their children behind while they go to work. And honestly, I never want to go through that feeling. So that is what my daily grind will be, going after my dreams, my aspirations and my goals.

I’m doing it for my future family as well as myself, because I deserve to give myself the best chance at life. And so should you!
