For the first few decades of my life, I worked hard towards goals prescribed by society. Do this. Don’t do that. Be this, that’ll make you happy. People will like you better, if you…

I was pretty good at making myself do things that I didn’t want to do but, God, it was hard. In the past few years, I’ve changed my focus to prioritize goals that come from the inside out, rather than the outside in.

Attempting to meet authentic goals feels more like fun than dreaded work. Pay attention to how things make you feel. The universe is directly connected to your gut instincts. Your gut will lead you if you let it.

Every time.
