Discovering Life

“The biggest adventure you can ever take is to live the life of your dreams.” What does living the life of your dreams means to you, do you believe it is possible to live the life of your dreams? Growing up I was known to have a great imagination and the ideas I had about the life wanted did not seem impossible to me as kid. The older I got was when I began to think limits or in other words was taught to think realistically and doing what makes senses. The question is does it matter if your life, vision, or dreams make sense to anyone else if it makes sense to you? In my opinion I belief that the only person our vision needs to make sense to is ourselves, it is a gift or what I like to call a personal assignment assigned by God.  Everyone has been blessed with specific gifts and talents that makes them unique but unfortunately there are only few that understand their mission and is willing to take the risk. The needing approval and guarantee support becomes the downfall for many or why we never even get started.  The truth is unfortunately the people we expect to show up for us will sometimes be the last and sometimes we have to be open to maybe a never and be strong enough to keep going. Everything is not for everyone our focus should be on connecting with who needs our light and the value we have to add.

When I first got started on building my business two years ago, I was so excited and I was anticipating having the people I loved and adored on board, I painted a picture in my heart of us all growing together. I quickly learned that the dream was a never to happen fairy tale, I lost a lot of people along the way, I have been hurt, talked about, discredited, and laugh at. In the beginning it was a very hard pill for me to swallow and harsh reality for me to accept. I had to decide to either sink or swim I can dwell on the unfortunate circumstances or I can rise to the occasion and give a hundred percent of myself to my mission. Today when I reflect on my experience I am so grateful for everything I had to go though to grow to the space I am in today, every tear I cried, and all the pain was just God’s way of preparing me for what is to come. Instead of trying to figure out why I took responsibility for my role and invest time in working harder on myself to become the change I desired to see. Today I am open to all possibilities and connecting with new amazing individuals from all walks of life. This weekend I enjoyed conversations with women of all different races that I would have allowed my hurt to take over. We have the power of choice and everyday we must be mindful of the choices we are making to know if they are adding value to ourselves and others or is it a disservice.

In conclusion I pray that no matter what your story is, or the type of experiences you have had that you do not internalize them and allow them to mean anything about yourself. Who we were created to be is not determined by our mistake neither is it altered by them they are exactly what we needed to fulfil our destiny? Life is about taking chances, learning from our experiences along the way, falling and being brave enough to get back up and try again and most importantly being present to enjoy the process. Success does not happen overnight and will take  days ,months, weeks, years ,and even a lifetime but we will never have all the answers and we should never  stop learning always remaining coachable .You will never too established that you can not take advice or  be open to learning new. We must be willing to lose our old ways of thinking and being in order to make room to welcome the best versions of ourselves. Ask yourself “am I ready to take on what has been assigned and promised to me and am I willing to let go of or sacrifice to make room for new?  Write it down and answer them with details and be specific about your intentions of what you want for You and the type of impact or legacy you are striving to achieve.
