From Live Your Passion!
Living your passion is one of the most exhilarating ways to help reawaken your inner child, as well as impress upon your children to go after their dreams.
We are all very excited when we finally finish school, graduate, and enter into the “real world”. We have so many thoughts and ideas buzzing in our heads of how wonderful our lives are going to be. We want to make an impact on society, change the world, and live on the edge of it! What usually happens is that we start our job or career, get married, and begin raising our family. And while these are all honorable, wonderful, and normally part of the plan, after some time we find that our lives just don’t seem to measure up to the bar that we so diligently set up for ourselves to attain. That brass ring is still just a little out of our reach. As time goes by, there are certainly parts of our lives that are where we wanted them to be, but other parts have plainly and simply fallen short.

Listen… you, I, and those “perfect” people have all had our missed opportunities and regrets.

If you are happy with your life just the way it is, then by all means skip to the next chapter. But, if you are like most people, then at one time or another you have probably felt as though there was a little something missing. Take just a few minutes to think about what it is that’s missing in your life!
The key for all of us is to not just be willing to settle! Don’t worry about what others may have, or are doing. After all, isn’t it truly about what you want? You still have plenty of time on this planet to do or have the things of your dreams. Start by stopping. Stop and take a little time to catch your breath from all of the stuff that you are already busy with in your life. If you haven’t heard it before, I’ll say it to you now; “If you keep on doing what you have always done, you will keep on getting what you have always got”.
