Why Don't You Just Stuff It ALL?

You got busy at work, got busy in your marriage, got busy with your home and maybe your kids and before you knew it... a chunk of your life had slipped away.

And it hasn*t been an easy chunk of life either, has it? Things going wrong: the car, the dishwasher and the kids, and you feel depressed at home and stressed at work.

And I*m sure the question, now you think about it is this, *Surely there must be more to life than this?*

And the second you read that question you immediately knew there was more to life, but then you immediately thought, *Yeah, but what is it?*

Well, what is it?

Have you been putting off for a while, something you*d love to do, something you*d love to try, something that would be fantastic if you could just find a way to make it work.

I had a dream twenty-three years ago. Back then I was sitting behind my school desk. Fourteen years ago, while walking in the woods I remembered that dream and vowed to do it some day and then just over eight years ago I stopped talking about it and actually did something...

What I found when I did it was that it felt natural and easy. Suddenly my life became easier and things that had been going wrong began to go right and suddenly what I was doing was putting my gift out there with a force that was greater than mine and my life began to be carried...

And isn*t being carried easier than walking...

And isn*t being carried, more comfortable too...

And isn*t being carried, what we all miss about our childhoods, because no-one carries us anymore and we have to walk or make our own way with everything, because everyone tells us that we should grow up, be strong, carve out our living, create this and be that...

Stuff it is what I say. Stuff it all. Stuff and get back to who you are. Stuff it and find out what you are. What is important to you? What is life really all about and why are you here in the first place going through experiences you find hard and not fun.

Trust me when I tell you there is a better way. Trust me when I tell you others are living lives where play and laughter fit into the occupation as much as making money and paying the bills.

Life can be richer. Life can be golden. Life can be fun.

In today*s life balance is vital, but getting it to balance can be difficult. What is important is that you ask yourself if you are happy with your lot and if you*re not then seek to make changes. A good place to start is by getting a free Lifestyle Report done. This will help you identify what needs to change in the areas of your life like: career, relationships and money.
