Dreams, hopes, and aspirations
As we approach the holidays, a time filled with food, Family, and questions. The typical questions we get asked are how is life going and where do we see life going? It’s worth taking time to sit and contemplate what are your dreams, hopes, and aspirations? What do you see yourself achieving in the next two years? In the next five? In the next 10? In your lifetime? If we don’t do this for ourselves, our well-meaning family, our friends, or the world will try to fill in the gap for us. What if we were clear and certain of the direction that we were heading? Perhaps instead of trying to persuade us toward their dreams for our lives others would then think of ways to support our chosen path. It would be worth taking some time this week before the holiday comes to journal and think through these things so you are ready to clearly articulate to those around you. One step further: what can you ask of your friends and family? Are there any resources or connections you are looking for that someone may have? Many people are willing to help if they know someone needs help. We just need to get better at articulating and asking.
