There’s such a big difference from looking at life from the perspective of “missing out” vs all the beauty and magic you are experiencing
It was a very difficult decision to let go of running a tree service business I had built from the ground up for two years with my boyfriend.
I had so much fear around all I would miss out on if I gave up my ownership and left the business.
What if I don’t make any money?
What if I am making a huge mistake?
What if I lose my partner in the process?
What if I lose a lot of money since I’ve invested so much?
But in actuality, by making the decision and trusting it would work out, it gave me back a sense of freedom and adventure that I was missing.
My heart had been pulled to move to the mountains for many years and now it was time to get myself there.
I then had so much fear around what I would miss out on if I finally made the move!
Missing out on time in Ontario with my boyfriend, missing out on gaining more experience working for the business, missing out on learning new tree climbing skills, missing out on the potential for learning crane experience, missing out on learning more from my energy healing and spirituality mentor, missing out on time with my parents and friends…..
Gosh how could I ever leave when I would be missing out on so much?
And to top it all off – I’d somehow have to navigate a long distance relationship once I move.
The last time I went out West for a couple months it was incredibly difficult so how the heck is this even going to work???
I used to view a long distant relationship as missing out on so much connection and closeness as well as being unable to connect fully with other people while travelling.
But I can choose to live in that reality – a space of lack, disappointment, sadness and disconnect
Or I can choose to live in a reality where I am immensely blessed, loved, guided, and supported
I am so grateful I get to travel the world, learn and grow, and at the same time be in a beautiful loving committed relationship
I get to do all the things I want to do
I get to go wherever my heart takes me
Live in my van and travel
And I am free to come back home anytime
What a beautiful loving experience
We always have a choice in how we view our situation
We always have control over our own perspective and the actions we take
I choose to trust that the universe will support me throughout this process of change
I choose to trust that I will be guided with love as I head out West
No job lined up. No places to stay. Unsure of where exactly I’m going and for how long.
I do know that I am on my path and I’m stepping into my purpose with courage and faith
If you follow your heart, your ego may try to tell you all the things your missing out on, but your soul will show you are exactly where you need to be
Shift your perspective to one of love and gratitude
And make your decisions from this space
And you can’t go wrong
With peace and love,
Kirsten
