What is your idea of a dream life?
Each of us has a representation of our dream life. Nevertheless, it seems that it will begin not soon enough, sometime later (if ever). For that reason, in many cases, it remains as an idea.
I believe that some transformational moments occur in life when we realize that nothing is eternal and everything has a logical end. At that point, it becomes your choice to act or to leave everything how it is and always has been.
How many times have you told yourself:
I will be happy when I will become more fit.
I will be happy when I find my dream job.
I will be happy when I start traveling more.
I will be happy when my relationships improve.
I will be happy when I allow myself to be me.
When we become sick, we start appreciating how great it feels to be healthy and spend our energy on something we enjoy doing rather than on healing ourselves. When we become better, we tend to quickly forget how our sick selves felt and dive back into our routine. A lot of times the same happens to our dreams, when we are tired of the same issues repeating over and over again, we tell ourselves, “that’s it, something needs to change” but when things improve, we tend to put our dream life at the end of the to-do list.
I came to a realization that I need to start living the life I desire right now, not sometime later. For me, it was essential to find a trigger that will keep me on course. This trigger will inevitably lead to another level, the level where the dream life will be possible and happening now, not sometime later.
Are you living your dream life now or keep thinking about it?
