What is your legacy, driving force, or purpose? You need inspiration and space to craft this vision so you have a clear goal before you do anything. Action without purpose is just wasted activity. This is the emotional side of living the good life.
What is it you want to accomplish in this lifetime? Not what your parents wanted for you, or your boss or your family or your friends. Not what other people think you should do.
What do YOU want to do?
“When you become disconnected from your dream, you become disconnected with life, and you’re just going through the motions. Nothing is really bad, but nothing is really good either. The inner joy just isn’t there.” ~ Dream Save Do
Maybe you have become disconnected from your dream, and right now you’re trying to find a way back.
Perhaps you want to travel around the world, or maybe your dream lies in starting your own business venture. Some people want to buy a new house or car, and others want to start a family or give birth to a creative idea like a book or invention. Some of you even want to make a movie.
Your dream may also be more along the lines of something you *don’t* want to do instead of what you do, and that’s a great starting point. Being fed up with something is a great motivator for change, and as you move away from what you don’t like about your life you’ll see new opportunities open up all around you. This is how we began our grand adventure, though we didn’t realize it at the time.
Paint a picture, visualize a day in the life, and see the impact your work can make on the world.
Then make it happen through your daily actions, habits, and relationships. You are the only person in the whole wide world who can live your life.
