Your Magenta Monday Magic.
Years ago, after my husband and I had separated and gotten back together, we discussed how we wanted our life to look and feel. I wanted to work from home to be close to our kids as they grew up, and I wanted the flexibility to be able to connect with friends and explore my passion and purpose. Life is all about balance, and we both wanted to travel and to have more adventure and connection, both between ourselves and others. We wanted more joy and love.
👫🌅 In the years that followed, that’s what we created.
Magic? No.
100% pure bliss? Absolutely not.
But by stating our intentions, and taking steps to make them happen, they did after all Life is all about balance.
I left my job to start consulting from home, which gave me the time to explore starting a nonprofit, to help out at school, and to connect with my friends. We prioritized saving for travel, and pushed ourselves to travel with our young kids – something that was beyond our comfort zone.
We have continually tweaked our plans to align with each stage of our lives, and today, as we’ve gotten older, travel has become a bigger part of our life. We recognize our window for being able to travel is slowly closing, so we’re fitting in as much as we can.
We continue to live with intention.
Monday Mindshift
It’s the 1° shift that makes the biggest difference over time.
What do you want more of in your life? Love? Joy? Connection? Awe? Adventure?
Think about it and write it down. Then, think about the things you like to do that will help you get there. 🤔
Awe? Spend time in nature – walking, hiking, or lounging on a beach. Visit a museum or to see a live performance.
Love and connection? Focus on the relationships you have. How can you deepen the sense of love and connection they offer? Call your best friend to catch up. Invite your partner out for an intimate dinner.
Joy? What makes your heart sing? What things did you like to do as a kid? Get busy doing some of them – riding a bike, drawing or painting, or replanting your garden.
When you get clear on what you want more of, and then take action to get it, you climb back into the driver’s seat of your life. 🛣️ Life is all about balance.
