Deepening Into You
"The biggest adventure you can ever take is to live the life of your dreams." -Oprah Winfrey
When I (Stephanie here!) first read this quote a long time ago, it changed my perspective. I began to see my life through a different lens. I decided to invest the time in digging deeper to uncover the dreams in my heart...and make them happen.
As I celebrate my 50th! Birthday this week, I am called to dive deep, again. I am reflecting on my life thus far, and what is next.
Like you, I have had many dreams realized. I have also had dreams shattered.
What keeps me going and showing up? What keeps me dreaming? The spark within.
The possibility of truly living the life of my dreams.
I do believe living the life of our dreams is the biggest adventure...and teacher...
How do I get in touch with my dreams?
Reflective Writing.
Writing is also a great way to release stress and bring your mind back to the present moment. Whether it’s about your successes, hopes, dreams, or goals, bringing pen to paper and focusing on the positive can be enough to put you in a more uplifted mood!
As I embark on my 50th year, below are some of the questions I am writing about.
1. Reflecting on the Past:
What are some of my most cherished moments?
What challenge am I proud to have overcome and what did it teach me?
Who has had the biggest impact on me and why? What did they teach me?
2. Reflecting on the Present:
What am I most grateful for in this moment?
What brings me joy?
What is a current habit I am proud of? What is a current habit I would like to change?
3. Reflecting on the Future:
Is there a dream I have put on hold that I want to revisit?
What are some things I still want to learn and experience?
What legacy do I wish to leave behind and what can I start doing now to work toward it?
Happy Writing! With Love,
