Ah, summer. Now that we have a little time on our hands, we can get to those projects that fall through the cracks during the year. A fun time for some, dreaded by others. Which group do you fall into? Do you relish in the idea of moving forward with a project or idea, or does the thought of tackling the job seem daunting?
The idea of embarking on a big project or change can certainly be overwhelming — getting rid of dust that has collected over the long winter as well as the nice coating of pollen from spring, sorting through clutter that has been allowed to build up, getting rid of things that no longer serve a purpose, even if they might have at one time. It can be hard to make these kinds of changes. Wouldn’t it just be easier to leave things as they are?
These very same questions can apply to the way we live our lives in general. So many of us 
are living the status quo, working in jobs we don’t like, stifling our dreams and hopes because just thinking about changing our lives is overwhelming. But think about the alternative: Just as a house that is never dusted or organized will grow dustier and more cluttered and eventually fall into disrepair, a life that is never nurtured becomes joyless and flat, and is a life wasted. Why not refocus? Why not author your vision as a defined intention and change the course of your life?
Will it be hard? No one ever said change was easy. Will it be worth it? Absolutely.
