What happens when you take the time to look at your life (rather than being right in the middle of it) and realise that it just doesn’t fit you anymore (assuming it ever did)? Yes, it might all look absolutely fine from the outside. But inside there’s this feeling that you’re not quite right somehow, maybe even that you’re living someone else’s life.
When you choose to change that, even if it’s only in small ways, you can totally change everything. And with that in mind, keep reading to find out what happens when you decide to choose a life that actually feels like yours.
Most people don’t just wake up one morning and decide to change their entire lives, and it actually usually starts with a few small signs. Perhaps your weekly routine no longer feels comfortable and easy, or maybe you catch yourself daydreaming about a different place or a different version of you, and so on.
When you reach that moment and finally notice something’s amiss, that’s the turning point, and once you see it, you can’t un-see it, and it’s just best to start making changes to improve it – don’t ignore it if possible.
This is the part that actually takes more courage than you might think, because wanting a life that feels more like yours can make you feel guilty or pressured, especially if you’ve spent years doing what you thought you were supposed to do. But the thing is that something changes when you finally let yourself be who you really are, and you stop tailoring your choices around other people and their expectations, and instead you pay attention to how things actually make you feel.
For some people, that’s going to come out in changing careers or ending relationships (or starting new ones, come to that), and for others it’s going to be about where they live, for example. And opening up to the idea of going to new places and even pulling up a property site to view MLS® listings to see what’s possible can be an idea place to start.
When people talk about reinventing their life, it’s always going to sound very dramatic and perhaps difficult, but the reality is that real change is more than likely going to be some small steps all added together to create the result you want, rather than one big change that immediately takes you where you want to go.
That could mean rearranging a room so it actually works for your lifestyle, for example, or setting some boundaries so you’ve got a better work life balance, or maybe even taking a class you’ve been curious about, and similar ideas. None of that’s a big thing in isolation, but when it’s all put together, it could have the potential to entirely turn your life around for the better.
Choosing a life that feels like yours isn’t going to make things perfect for you, but it will mean things get easier, happier, and honest, and that’s much more important.
