Just livin the Dream…the dirty truth about fulfilling all your wildest dreams
Welcome back, folks!
I cannot believe it’s the 10th of January! Right now, as I sit in my housecoat, watching the snow fall, drinking my decaf, I take a moment of thanks and gratitude, because holy-moly life is pretty dam good!
Why do I say that?
Well, because Luke and I are preparing to embark on another journey and tack on another win off the ol’bucket list! Although I don’t want to ruin the surprise -just yet- I do want to share my experiences of what fulfilling a dream feels like to me.
And it's probably not what you think.
First of all, bringing a dream to reality can be messy.
What do I mean by this?
Say, you have laid out a perfect plan, set all the details in motion, have your finances organized, a couple of particulars locked down, and then blamo, shit has gone sideways. All of a sudden, that easy, breezy plan you have been dreaming about your whole life is no good, and self-doubt, insecurity, and fear show up…Again.
What do you do now? Your plan is not going as expected, and your dreams seem to be swirling around your mind, like toilet water.
Perhaps you start comparing yourself to others, telling yourself that they have it all together, and why would you think this dream was meant for you anyways? You’re 90% certain that you’re going to pull the plug and run home with your tail between your legs.
Can you relate?
Dreams rarely play out the way you expect them to. I’m not saying that to deter you from living a dreamy life, it's more of a reminder that life is not linear, rather it ebbs and flows through different landscapes, and it's crucial to adapt to them. Fulfilling your dreams takes grit and courage. It forces you to let go of the ego and allow the universe to guide you. And if you’re not careful, you will miss the whole show.
It's true, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step – but boy-oh-boy when you make it to the finish line…there is just nothing like it.
Now tell me something, what are your dreams? What is something that you MUST do before it's too late?
I know I cannot wait to share mine!
Stay tuned for next week’s post, as I’m so over the moon excited to reveal our next life dream!!!
Until Next Week,
Stay Wild
Much Love,
Kelsey
