re-design

I woke up one day some years ago to realize the life I spent the last 20 some years building wasn’t the life that I wanted. Excluding my spouse and son of course - they are the life lines that keep me going. But I have a career that I hate, a cookie cutter home in a suburban development that just isn’t me, the monotony of the same day, over and over again is taking its toll. I am not living, I am not having any fun. Just going through the motions of getting through my day, just to do the next one all again, all the same.

I need to change, to live life on my terms. I want to fill my days with more joy, I want to live more deliberately in a life I fully designed. I am turning off auto-pilot, setting intentions on how I want my days to look and how I want to spend them. The plan being, to do what I set out to do, no matter how much resistance my mind, energy and body put forth.

I will start small, adding a new intention a week. Most will be part of a new routine, a specific time of the day when I plan to accomplish whatever it is I want to incorporate into my life. They will range from health and wellness; to hobbies and recreation; to career and business endeavors.

I don’t anticipate my life will change in a short time, I am aware this will perhaps take years to accomplish. But there is no better time to start than now.
