Manage episode 362468554 series 3463420
“We have one life, we just have this one. And why are you not running like you are on fire towards your wildest dreams?,” shares co-host Amy. Life goes so quickly and we only get just this one, so why not find more of what brings you joy? Today, co-hosts Amy and Denyse talk about why you should start writing down your dreams and creating a tangible plan toward making them a reality.
Write down your goals, even if they feel out of reach at the moment. There are always small, actionable steps you can take to start moving toward a goal. Whether it’s a career goal or a personal resolution, don’t keep putting off your joy. Find things that are just for you outside of work, whether that be enjoying a hobby, planning for a vacation, or learning something new. After experiencing the isolation of the last 3 years, it is more apparent than ever that people need connection and opportunities to explore their passions.
By not just making a resolution, but writing down an actionable plan, you are taking a major first step toward prioritizing your own happiness. There are so many reminders each day of how quickly life goes by. So don’t spend any more time missing out on chances for adding more joy to your life.
