Living the life you really want?

Not living the life you really want? Here it is the end of another year…. Are you stuck in the same place you were last December still wishing for that dream job, partner, life?

What do you have to change before this time next year so that you don’t want to kill yourself for not just going for it? “Kill yourself” is a little dramatic but you know what I mean. I have been so mad at myself in Decembers past for letting whole years go by and still NOT doing what I love even though I knew what I wanted to do and knew I have what it takes to do it! I have stayed in corporate jobs long past the point that they were interesting or challenging (Soul death). I accomplished what I set out to and then stayed way after that out of fear of change, busy-ness with raising children, complacency and because I was earning decent money- enough to get by but not the kind of money I wanted. All mindset issues! I can remember driving to work thinking about where I would go for lunch in a few hours. This was one of many signs. I was restructured out of two such jobs as if the universe was giving me a nudge. I didn’t take full advantage of it the first time but I was literally smiling as I drove away from the office this last time. The next day I started working out, sitting outside with my dogs, and writing my business plan and my book. I lost that job in April 2014 and had my first article published in a magazine in July that year. That was one of the best days of my entire life. I felt the exhilaration and couldn’t wait to write more and have more of my ideal life.

What is the one thing you have to change so you feel exhilaration, awe and peace rather than anger or regret when next December 28^th comes?
