When was the last time you wondered that? When was the last time someone asked you that? Don’t rush to answer. I don’t ask you what exotic destination you would like to see this summer, where to sit with your belly in the sun for a week, after a hard time, because I am convinced that you already have a long list full of ideas and offers on your agenda.
I’m not even asking you about the latest car model that appeared recently, which you planned to buy by the end of the year. No, it’s not about that.
What are your deepest desires? What would you do if you weren’t afraid?
Would you go out the sliding door of the corporation and give up the job that at this moment does not bring you any financial, personal, etc. satisfaction? Would you start that business you’ve been thinking about for a while?
Would you come out smiling, upside down, in a relationship where you feel trapped, a prisoner for years?
Would you have the courage and go talk to that person you see in the office who smiles at you every time he sees you?
Would you start writing the book you’ve been dreaming of for years?
Would you climb Everest or parachute?
What would you do if you weren’t afraid?
Stop for a moment, stop your actions from this moment, think. And try to do this without discernment, without criticism or analysis. Write everything that comes to mind in a diary, no matter how crazy, irrational, absurd, or crazy.
Many times we only do the things we don’t like and never or rarely prioritize, which we would actually like to do. Most of the time we are not even allowed to think, or imagine what it would be like if?
We always find reasons to stay in the same situation or relationship that doesn’t do us any good, invoking all sorts of excuses like I’m too old, I can’t, I’m alone, I can’t handle it.
As one sage said, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, which only you have the power to do. Choose at least one of your dreams and turn it into reality, day after day.
You have only one life, live it properly, and make it your best work of art.
