40 Plus & Fired Up?

Are you fired up about life?

If not… why not?

I was talking to a client today about this and he was explaining how he’s gone from waking up and thinking about what the day’s going to bring in terms of stress and complications to waking up and thinking, “Yes! Another new day!”

What a turn around. The sad thing is most of us live our lives with that low level dread of the day ahead – sometimes it can even start the night before (I know it used to for me on a Sunday), but…

Newsflash! That’s not how it’s meant to be folks!

You should wake up every day fired up, excited for what opportunities the day might bring – I know I do now.

This isn’t false positivity which in itself can be toxic, but it’s about being grateful for the smallest things, recognising them, and seeing the value in each day.

We’re here for a short ride and I want to make the most of it, so I set my life up to reflect that:

– I exercise

– I nourish myself

– I invest in my personal growth

– I invest in my relationship

– I look after my business

– I practice gratitude

– I set goals and execute on them

– I remember life is for living and to have fun along the way

Small steps, but once you start living like this the whole fabric of your existence starts to shift.

Too often we get caught up in the “when I have more”, in the “I’ll be happy when…”

Screw that!

Have ambitions, have goals, but be present and see each day for the gift it is.

Believe me, if you can shift your mindset to this place and start being the driver of your life rather than a passenger, amazing things will start to happen…
