Easier said than done you may say. Maybe this makes you angry because you think you have tried to change your life without success. But if you’re not where you want to be, chances are you haven’t done the right things.

Have you done an inventory of your life lately? What does it look like? Are you happy with what you see?

Maybe you feel like all you do is work and you secretly crave a different lifestyle. Your soul is longing for adventure, joy, fun and expression. You know you are here to do something big. You can feel it inside of you, but somehow you’ve been holding back.

Maybe you’ve been telling yourself now is not the time. But your soul keeps gently nudging you, urging you to make changes.

Have you been telling yourself you can’t have what you want? Are you limiting yourself?

I used to feel this way for many years. I was stuck in a job that I knew was not the right fit for me, but because I didn’t know what else to do, I stayed until eventually my body collapsed.

My soul had had enough and the only way to stop me was to make me so sick I couldn’t get up.

When you’re on a path in life that is not in alignment with your purpose and when you refuse to listen to your inner guidance, you can develop dis-ease. I remember clearly like it was yesterday the day I collapsed. As I was laying there on the floor my life was flashing before my eyes.  I was thinking: What the heck just happened and how did I get here? What do I do now?

I had a business to run, small children to take care of and a traveling husband. And my body had given out. This is what happens when you don’t listen and when you resist doing what you are meant to do.

The truth is, if you don’t take care of yourself, no one else will. Nobody else knows what it feels like to be in the situation you’re in. They don’t feel your pain. You are the one who needs to stand up for yourself and choose to create something else for yourself. But in order to do that you need to let go of your story and your excuses. It’s time to take responsibility and start doing things differently because what you have been doing has not been working. If it was, you would be living the life you want right now and probably not be reading this article.

Don’t waste your energy on how you got where you are today. Instead, think about what your heart most desire for you to have.  What does your soul crave? What have you been dreaming about secretly not daring to tell anyone about because you were afraid they would not take you seriously?

That, my friend, is what you are here to do!
