Back In 2012 My Life Was A Big Fat Mess, But Then I Did This....

                                  "Some will push you forwards, others will pull you back.
                                              Regardless of who's pushing or pulling,
                                            the strongest chooses their own direction."
                                                                 - Rolsey




Have you ever had your life totally collapse on you?

This is what happened to me back in the spring of 2012. By life was in a big fat mess, and I found myself  hanging on by a thread.

This downfall didn't happen overnight. It had been brewing for a couple of years, but in April of 2012, it totally collapsed.

Three things happened at almost the same time.

First, my mother passed away at the age of 86, in Dec. of 2011. She had lived a long life, but it was hard to lose your own mother.

Second, in March of 2012,  I had to walk away from a emotional, phycological and financial abusive relationship. This man was a narcissist and the only thing I could do was to leave almost everything behind, if I wanted to keep my health and my sanity. So I packed my bags and left, together with my 2 dogs.

Third, in April of 2012 I had to return to Sweden after living in the US for 25 years (I was born and raised there). Since my ex had cut off all the money, I had no place to live and no way of supporting myself in the US, I felt like I had no other option than to go back to Sweden.

So in April of 2012 I found myself in a big fat mess. Sitting in an apartment with my 2 dogs in Sweden, thinking.....what the heck happened??????

It took a while for my head to clear. It was like I had been in a huge car wreck, and I couldn't think straight for a couple of months.


                                                 Sometimes when things fall apart
                                              they may actually be falling together.


But in July of 2012, I did something that would forever change my life.....
I hired a LIFE COACH and I created a BIG VISION for my life.
It made such a huge difference in my life.
Actually it saved my life.

Who would have thought that having a vision for my life would be such a game changer. Before 2012 I don't believe that I had ever sat down and asked myself what I wanted my life to look like. I had been busy living someone else's life for 25 years, and they didn't ask me what I wanted.

But in July of 2012 it all changed when I met my first life coach.
The first time we met, he gave me a future visioning process to do. I did it, and everything changed then and there, and I haven't looked back.

Since then I have come to realize how important it is for all of us to have a compelling future.
We must create a vision for our lives.
We must have goals in every area of our lives.
We also  must create a game plan how to get to where we want to go, and then take action on that game plan on a daily base
We must create new empowering habits that will take us to where we want to go. Old habits have to go and we must develop some new ones.

Only 5% of the population has specific, written down goals.
Goals have to be specific, and if you don't write then down and create a deadline for when you want to accomplish your goal(s), you will only be a dreamer and not a creator.

I can't tell you how important having a vision for my life has been.
It changed my life completely back in 2012.

Don't go through life without asking yourself.....
What do I want my life to look like in 2, 5, or 10 years?
Become a part of the 5%.
