THRIVING

There was a point when I realized that I was just living in a cycle of simply existing.

Did I enjoy life?
Sure.
Did I make my own decisions and move forward and do cool things? Yes.

But now I look back and realize that those things were really based on what though? Someone else’s idea of what life should be? What it should look like?

I’m not sure I really even knew what thriving meant. Or that it existed.

We chase this “dream” or idea and sometimes we get so caught up in the chasing that we fail to stop and ask ourselves who’s dream it is we’re chasing in the first place…

OR even more scary…do you even KNOW what you’re chasing anymore?

This morning when I was in the midst of an exercise lead by Tony Robbins- I had this glimpse of what my life used to be like, what it used to FEEL like and I realized that I was simply existing. Making the most of what cards I was dealt- yes absolutely- I was climbing and dancing and fighting but within the game I was dealt into.

In the next moment I realized that what I was doing right then and there, sitting in this visualization practice designed to deepen your gratitude, pull in your dreams, and establish a sense of love so rooted inside of me was the exact OPPOSITE of existing.

It was an act of THRIVING.

And I’m here to tap you on your shoulder, bring you back to this present moment and tell you that THRIVING IS A CHOICE.

It’s an every day choice.

One you might not even know that you have as an option because I know there was a time that I certainly didn’t know THRIVING was part of the multi choice test answers in front of me at any given time.

Think about that for a minute…Are you simply existing? Maybe even feeling like you’re just surviving day to day…. or are you THRIVING consciously through each step you’re taking?

Next ask yourself what you’re willing to do to get more of that THRIVE in your life.

Then decide what you’re doing to do about it.

It will always come down to the choice. ❤

And at risk of possibly sounding like a 90’s country ballad, My wish for you is to THRIVE.
