Lean into what you want

Excerpt from upcoming book, Courage and Croissants, Inspiring Joyful Living

 

As our book is coming into the final finishes I am happy to share with you the section on Life Guidebook Tips.

 

The following tip is one of my favorites as it says you don't have to have it all figured out, you just have to have a feeling, a dream, a hope, a sense and as you lean into it, let the breeze take you towards something wonderful.

 

Enjoy and let us know what you are dreaming of and willing to lean into as well.

Take the first step in faith.
You don’t have to see the whole staircase.
Just take the first step.

Having a clear vision is one of the best motivators for creating the life you want to live. However, sometimes we just aren’t that clear. We have a fuzzy idea, a sense of what we want, and a hope that clarity comes to us sooner than later. Similar to painting a fantastic landscape we don’t know exactly where it is going to take us, but we are willing to continue to put layer after layer of paint on the canvas.

 

Even without a vivid vision, you can start to live the life you want by going with the idea. Just start and let the momentum take you with it. Experiment, let it guide you, learn along the way, and use the feedback to clearer on the direction you want to go.

 

A few tips for leaning into the life you want to create:

  1. Be willing to start without seeing what the end result might look like
