Are you craving to live a different lifestyle? Is your soul urging you to make some changes in your life, to have more joy, adventure, fun and travel? Maybe you want to live a laptop lifestyle that allows you do work when you want, and from where you want.

Chances are you have a dream deep inside of you and maybe you imagine a life different from the one you live today.

A life filled with more joy, where you are excited every morning because you love what you do and you can’t wait to take on whatever the day has to offer. You are using your gifts and you are making a difference in the world while living the life your soul longs for.

If you have a wild dream of living differently, know that you can. It’s a matter of deciding that you will. You can create your life by design, not by default. You can have the lifestyle you want – and actually, if your soul craves it, it’s because you’re supposed to experience it.

The opportunities have never been greater to create freedom and the lifestyle of your dreams. Only your creativity can limit you to what you could be doing. You don’t need to be a brain surgeon or have an MBA to do this. And, here’s the great thing; you can make a great living doing what you love. You just need to learn the right tools and the right mindset.

Here are six steps to gain more clarity on what you want, so you can take the first step in that direction.

But keep in mind. Your ego is going to try to stop you from doing what you want. It’s going to come up with excuses for you so you can stay where you are. Try to silence your inner critical voice while going through these steps.

1)      What does your dream life look like? Think about what your life would look like. What would you do? Who would you be with and what would your lifestyle look like?

2)      What are your greatest gifts? Have you been told by people that you are really good at something? What do you love doing more than anything else? What makes you lose track of time and space? Your soul knows what you are here to do. Listen to it’s messages. They may be subtle, so quiet your mind. If you can, start meditating daily, it will help you connect closer to your true self.

3)      What did you enjoy doing as a child? Often, you will see clues of what you are meant to do from what you did naturally as a child, before you started doing things to conform to the world around you.

4)      Who makes you jealous or envious? Very likely, if you envy someone, it’s because they have something that you desire to have. Find out who they are and what they have that you want. Why do you want that?

5)      What are your biggest lessons in life? Chances are your struggles were meant to prepare you for what’s coming next. How can what you have learned benefit other people?

6)      Make a commitment to yourself that you are going to allow yourself to have what you want. You deserve it. You are worthy of having anything you want. Without putting pressure on yourself, allow yourself to tune into your desires regularly. Maybe start writing a journal about your desires. Know that once you find clarity, you are only a decision away from stepping into that next phase of your life. And remember, it is not going to happen over night, so getting started doesn’t mean you have to jump ship tomorrow. Just allow yourself to explore. Your soul has all the answer you need. Just listen.
