There are only two ways to live . . . one is as though nothing is
a miracle. . . the other is as if everything is. – Albert Einstein
I decided the other day that I have been operating on autopilot for quite a while now. It’s not pretty to realize you are in a rut and acknowledge the tangled web you have woven for yourself. It’s been so much easier to just settle when the work to grow seems daunting.
For a few years now, I have been dreaming of leaving an office job and setting out on my own. My dream would be to create a business that makes a difference in people’s lives, and allows me the freedom to live a life I love. I have always considered myself an artist, but I’m coming to the realization that I also associate being an artist, with a big struggle. It’s just not possible, for what I have seen that this could be otherwise for me. But this kind of thinking has keep me safe.
I forgot I always have a choice and a say in how things go. I can choose to focus on what I don’t want and settle. Or I could choose to create something else for myself.
Well I love, love, love focusing on what I don’t want. That’s not really getting me anywhere. What I need is a plan, some faith, and some guts. Lets see here that gets me.
