Will The Real YOU Please Stand Up...

How long has it been? Years probably (maybe since you were a carefree kid)

Years of frustration as you try to “fit” into a world that you think you need to fit into. Years of sacrifice and missing out as you do the “right” things. The things you should do. The things you think you have to do to win at this thing called life.

The “right” job, the “right” car, the “right” house, the "right" toys.

And it looks great to everyone on the outside. But deep down, you know this isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Deep down you know YOU want more.

There MUST be more to life than the hustle and grind at work, endless meetings and office politics right?

There MUST be more to life than promising yourself you'll get to the things you love doing soon (or later) once you achieve MORE success?

And what about you? What's next for YOU? What do YOU want?

When do you get to be YOU and actually do the things you love? The things that excite and energise you. The things that make you feel like that carefree kid again?

When do you get to savour the spoils of all your hard work?

When do YOU get to do it YOUR WAY?

Truth be told - and this took me a long time to admit - there's a very good chance you're the reason that's not happening right now. Maybe you're terrified of failure. Terrified of losing everything you've worked so hard for...

Maybe you're scared of success - of upsetting the easy, comfortable life you've created

Or maybe it's the unknown - you simply have no idea how to change it all.

Speaking from personal experience here - so I'm definitely not judging you - you're now in a trap of your own making. That life you created - the “right” house and “right” car needs maintaining.

The lifestyle you've sweated over for so long to (let’s be honest) impress other people with, that you don't even truly want. Sure it's a great life, but is it really the one YOU want?

Is it really you being YOU?

Unfortunately, if you take your foot off the gas, you think it will all be GONE in an instant.

But here’s the thing...what if you could have your cake AND eat it too?

What if you could have what YOU want and have the time to enjoy it?

What if you don't have to miss out on that special time with your family - those moments and memories that last forever?

What if you can have it ALL?

Well, you can.

BUT it starts with YOU.

Because while you’re slaving away working long and hard at work, no one (and I mean literally NO ONE) is going to come and tell you “You’ve made me rich enough, go and do what YOU want to do now on me”.

Of course they’re not.

So it’s on YOU to decide enough is enough.

It’s on you to consciously step out of the prison you’ve built yourself and CHOOSE a different, much BETTER way

And create your freedom - a life YOU wouldn't trade for anything.

It really is that simple (admittedly it's definitely not easy).

It takes conviction, courage and commitment.

It takes clarity (of your why, what, who and value)

And a willingness to risk going AGAINST the overwhelming tide of sameness.

But it all starts with YOU being you.

So I'm going to ask again. Will the real YOU please stand up...
