Stay hungry. Stay foolish.
I’ve reinvented myself so many times that I’ve lost count. At least 4 college majors, 2 major, career changes and countless hobbies later, I’ve finally started to be ok with reinvention as a part of life. For a long time, I hung on to the belief that I needed to find a career and stick with it. Slowly over the last few years I’ve realized that I’m not a career person. I will never have a traditional job and be happy. I may have to have day job to pay the bills, but I need to build my life around…well…having a life. So I’ve started to build my life. I’m lucky enough to have a family to come home to that loves and supports each other. I have the creative outlet of this blog and all of you fantastic readers. (In my head I imagine crickets. Hey, even if I’m yelling in to an abyss, at least I’m yelling!) In the process of figuring all of this out, I started to make a list of what I still wanted to do. I feel the need to incorporate more creativity, physical work in to my life. Enter yoga teacher training.
I’ve been pursuing YTT for a long time, but something would always come up. The timing wouldn’t be right or the money would be needed elsewhere. But enough is enough. There’s not better time but now and I’m finally pursuing what I want. Not what others think is best…what I think is best for me. And damn it feels good.
Spring is a time of renewal- of change. Try something new. Pursue a dream. Be yourself.
