That was the question I was constantly asking myself before I started Urban Paw Print.
After I became single again, I moved from the suburbs back to the city, I decided I was going to live my life to the fullest and have FUN, lots of FUN!!!! As I do not want to look back at my life when I am 80 and say to myself, "Dang! That was it??"
I did a lot, went to networking events on my own, scared to death, but I did it, and was fun. Played in a softball team for two seasons, completely sucked. The team is probably still thanking God that I left. Went to Baron Baptize's one day boot camp, practiced yoga for 5 hours with 400 other people. That was an awesome experience, I did a handstand freestyle first time ever!!! Did the 3Day Breast Cancer walk with my best friend. Started dragon boat racing last year and have been addicted to it ever since, we traveled all along the east coast to race, made some very very good friends. Suddenly I have a lot of friends and my weekends are booked, I am living my life to the fullest, my life is perfect.. or is it???
The answer would be NO!!! Because I did not have a perfectly matched career..it did not match my personality, my interests or my passion. I had known this for years but it was a relatively secure job, I had a great boss, there were elements of the job that I liked, and that I was good at.. why rock the boat?
Then I came across 2 quotes that changed my way of thinking. "If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal" - Albert Einstein.
"Goals are dreams we convert to plans and take action to fulfil" - Zig Ziglar.
I want to live a happy life and I have a dream to fulfill .. and the rest is history...
