Box > Open > Recycle > UNLIMT yourself

Creative Director
I never gave my brain a chance to breathe…
I remember watching an influencer that had talked about how taking a shower, is not the place to be planning your day.  It should be a time devoted to clearing your mind.  A cleansing of the soul.  Not for me, I was always looking inside the ‘box’, trying to control things that were not mine to control.
The road less traveled is worthy of walking.  My ‘third’ life had become a box.  I had accomplished a “bountiful” living with my husband. We had arrived!
No worries about money, great careers, free to spend recklessly, and for me, I was MISERABLE. I had every MATERIAL ‘thing’ I ever wanted, and I was not happy. I was not pleased with the person that I had become. I had forgotten that my wellbeing, family, and friends, were the most important things in my life.
The hardest part of my third life was the daily routine. I literally could predict how my day would go.  Maybe it was not a prediction, I think it may have been my desire to control everything? Either way, I was stuck in a box limiting myself, while looking out at the world, wishing I was somewhere else.

Work Should never be a “Chore.”

Creative Director

I want to share with you a “story.”

When I had a job, I hated when the alarm clock sounded. Getting ready in the morning was such a chore, it was my least favorite part of the day. Once I was dressed, out the door, and at work, I felt better. I may have been clean-shaven, had a smile on my face, but I was not happy. I was stuck in fear.

My passion of helping others in crisis, became a “Chore.”

My mother has always told me that I could do and be anything you want to be. God has blessed me with many talents. I am grateful that I longer waste my abilities or give them away anymore to a “chore.”  Today, I enjoy shaving and exploring anything but a routine task.

Definition: Chore
noun
A routine task, especially a household one.

31 days of writing about my past travel experience daily, sounds to me like a chore. I will commit to writing daily.  I’ve lived in the past long enough. I will let creativity freely flow, not create and control it.
