For years I just sorta floated around going with the flow.

Not valuing my time and doing what others wanted. I suffered with extreme anxiety for many years so It was difficult for me to imagine a future where I wasn’t struggling to feel safe and calm.

Let alone, dreaming up goals, planning, and implementing them. I was just trying to get through each day without having a panic attack.

I felt chronically overwhelmed and overstimulated by the slightest things. Since I was unable to work for many years.

I couldn’t see where I was adding immense value to others' worlds just by being alive.

My mind had been programmed to compare myself to others' long lists of successes and I always felt frozen and like I was never enough and running out of time.

I wasn’t giving myself credit because I was trying to fit into a mold that simply wasn’t me or even meant to be my path.

Some people do quite well following others' guidelines, ideas and structures, but I am a free thinking super creative Aq...

What does being successful mean to you?

There’s no right or wrong answer to that; however, you’ve probably noticed success is often equated with money.

Also being envied by others, having some sort of reputation that you have value, wealth, or influence and voila you’re successful!

But, you must decide what kind of life you want to live. Too many people are working jobs they hate or have outgrown.

Giving the illusion that they are living this fabulous life, but miserable behind the scenes. And one thing I know for certain; if you’re not truly inspired by the path you’re on you will stop yourself one way or another.

What if you stop comparing yourself to everyone else’s seemingly amazing life and follow what’s true for your highest life vision?

I know it can feel scary to admit that maybe you’re not happy with how things are going.

Especially if tons of time and money were invested into a certain path.

But it's even more scary to look back over your life with regret.

It's that time of year again when people start thinking about the changes they want or need to make in their lives.

The infamous "New Year's Resolutions" most often include losing weight, sticking to an exercise plan, quitting smoking, spending less money, making family time a priority, etc.

These are all great ideas, but I always wondered why we had to make these choices one day a year and then when we most likely failed at keeping the resolutions we just labeled ourselves failures and then waited until January 1st of the following year to try again.

A pretty dumb idea if you ask me...
