“You don’t need a vacation when there’s nothing to escape from.” – Jason Mraz, Everything Is Sound

What do you want more than anything?

All of our desires come back to emotions and feelings we want to experience in life. If what you want in life isn’t an emotion or feeling, how can you take that desire down to it’s root?

For instance, if your answer for what you really want is a new car, home, a relationship, different job, etc. what is the emotion related to this object or experience? What feeling will it bring you that you desire? Freedom? Security? Purpose? Creative expression?

Without identifying your deepest desired feelings you can end up jumping from one achievement or purchase to the next, never truly being satisfied.

For me…I’m a Freedom girl. Almost everything I desire in life comes back to my need and love of feeling free. Feeling connected to truth, to divine guidance and experiencing the beauty of the world.

What are your true desired feelings? Are you living them?

Having recently returned from an active outdoorsy getaway, I’ve found the transition back to ‘normal’ life to feel well…silly. Why would I want to transition back at all?

My whole goal is to feel FREE. So why would I create so many ways to prevent this? So many ways to lock in what I ‘Have To’ or ‘Should’ do…(oh how I dislike those phrases).

I have created a life that gives me flexibility in my schedule.

And yet I sometimes treat myself as if I’m in a 9-5 job. Why? Because of that old feeling of needing to get a enough done before I “deserve” to relax.

Seriously? I’m not 6 anymore and my inner dialogue doesn’t need to tell me to finish my homework before I go outside.

The whole point of creating a life like no one else is to live a life…like no one else. To feel free. To enjoy life. And to help others do the same.

I don’t need to work a traditional schedule to be great at what I do or to be successful, and neither do you.

If I’m not living the life of my dreams what use am I to my community, my clients, my tribe?

So here it is…I CHALLENGE you to Drop The Struggle in your life.

To know that less is more when it comes to over working and micro managing yourself.

You dream of living a dream right? You’ll get results just as quickly (if not faster) by enjoying your life in the process as you will by working your fingers to the bone and your wits to their end. Plus the added bonus of enjoying the experience. Finding happiness not only in the results but in the journey itself.

You will be so much better at the work you do if you’re having a great time doing it. You’ll have more inspiration and great ideas. You’ll make more connections and come across more leads, prospects, and opportunities as a truly joyful person who’s out in the world living their truth.

I DARE you to live from a place of Freedom and Fun.

Stop waiting for your next vacation. Stop creating a life that you feel you need to escape from.

Here’s your call to action: LIVE YOUR DREAMS NOW.
Today. In any way possible.

Don’t wait for your dreams to happen to you. Don’t wait for life to look how you want it to.

Live the best gosh darn life you can today (that’s my country girl coming out).

Treat people well, smile more, savor the foods you love, go for a walk, watch the sunset. Feel free, feel beautiful, know that you are filled with purpose, and you mean so much to so many.

So in honor of feeling free, having fun, and living my dreams…I’ll be laying by the pool the rest of the afternoon 🙂

How will you live your dreams?
