There comes a time in your life, when you must decide what you truly want, who you authentically want to be, and the way you want to live your life, on your terms. We may be trying to live according to someone else’s ideals, and values, and finally we start to notice, or maybe its an off feeling, that we no longer know who we are, what we believe, and how we want to live. There is a question in our souls, quiet, muted, or forgotten, an echo deep in our hearts, a subtle discontentment that is always there. Somewhere along life’s journey we allowed someone or something to dictate who we became. Good, bad, or just neutral we became what was expected of us, instead of what we crave, value, and who we imagined we would be. The process of finding out who we are, is where the life changing growth happens. The discovery of our own inner thoughts that create our, beliefs, feelings, and behaviors, freeing us from being influenced unwillingly ever again! This journey is where our learning shapes our character, our voice, and our fulfilled life. Living a value based life will uncover, who you want to be, how you want to behave, respond, and react, defined by you, and only you! The answers are inside of you, they may be numbed or silenced by disappointment, fear, boredom, rejection, anger, resentment, depression, anxiety or confusion. But they are there, waiting to be discovered, lived and achieved. When we together stop long enough, quiet down the racing thoughts, the people pleasing, the unrealistic expectations, and truly listen to your own heart, respect our opinions, set fire to our passion, and live according to our own values, we will live life on purpose, and live the life we have created, with some assembly required!
