How to follow a dream

Have you ever really pursued a dream, gave it all you got, then reached it? (Yay!) But then you felt disappointed because the success didn’t quite feel like you thought it should feel like? Like maybe you got a job promotion you really wanted, started making a lot more money which you thought would fix everything, but then you discovered it really was not something you liked doing? At first it felt really good because you had extra money and you were able to pay some bills and do some things that you wanted to do, but eventually you discovered the money wasn’t enough to fulfill you,  so eventually you realized that money doesn’t create happiness when you hate what you’re doing? 

Or maybe the reverse is true, maybe you started doing something that you really love to do, maybe some kind of artistic pursuit or creative endeavors, and you love being in the process of doing it but then find yourself struggling in the rest your life? You might not feel supported by others and certainly don’t make enough, if any, money to support yourself? 

These are examples of why we need to engage our Whole Self in our dreaming or goal setting process. 

 There is a way to find the balance in doing something you like to do and being supported in it. When we narrow our focus to meet just one aspect of our Whole Self and ignore the others that are also meant to thrive, we risk not being fulfilled or still struggling. 

There are no mistakes

so even if you’ve pursued something and realized it’s not exactly what you want, you can still pivot a little bit, maybe change things a little bit and get new direction, at the very least you now know what you don’t want
But wouldn’t it seem easier and maybe more efficient to align our actions with something that is going to make us feel supportive and happy? 

 In this episode you’ll hear  

  • the three primary areas you need to engage in following dreams and goal setting  
  • some ways to identify when you’re on the right track or not
