Recalculating

It's quiet ironic that I love exploring new places - yet I despise maps. Ask anyone who has travelled with me, get a map in my hands and I will direct us the wrong way 9 times out of 10. 

For me, wherever I go, I like to just go with the flow - there is nothing more exciting than stumbling across a cool cafe or bar by accident. That is just how I roll.


Lately, I have realised that this principal is what I have adopted throughout la dolce vita. I may set out to do one thing and then realise it is not for me and take a slightly different path. Up until recently, I would often think I was too fickle, always thinking of a new thing to pursue but I have come to realise this is just me. For instance, when I began embarking on my career change, what has never changed is the fact that I want to help others - through improving their lives and looking at everyone from a holistic perspective. I dabbled in Psychology studies and realised that it wasn't what I wanted to continue to pursue. 





So I recalculated my journey took a step back and kept pursuing what interested me. 

My alternative route has taken me through the likes of Ayurveda, Yoga Teacher Training, Counselling and Coaching andI have attended countless other seminars and workshops. As I write this, I have just signed on to do another course and I am looking forward to where that will lead me.

My journey has led me down the wealth path to myself. An investment in myself. 

The more I say yes, the more interesting life has become and the more I have a clearer perspective.

And while I sometimes feel frustrated that I haven't reached an end point yet - I also acknowledge that life is a continuous journey. There will always be something new to learn, a new path to take, a chance to reassess - and how grateful I am for that!
