It’s Tuesday at the office lunch table and you have finally emerged victorious over your battle with the Monday blues to recap your wonderful 2 days of bliss known as the weekend, but what about the other 5 days of the week? Are they not meant to be lived to the fullest? Let’s look at the numbers: 7 > 2. The verdict is in. A 7-day weekend is better than a 2-day weekend, but how could we possibly have a 7 day weekend every week?
Follow Your Purpose and Passion
Figure out a way to make a living doing the things that make your soul sing and each day will become a gift just waiting to be unwrapped. One way to do this is to use the connections you have made in your current career. Inevitably many of these connections will have family and friends who are either doing a job you are interested in or could be potential clients or customers for you in the future. Find a local mentor who has a job you are interested in and reach out to them. Let them know you just want to learn more about their professional experience. A good mentor will provide you with an opportunity to identify what kind of credentials and experience are needed to get a job and help you find the opportunities to acquire one.
Fail Fail Fail
There’s only one way to learn how to do something new and that is to try new things. A majority of the time this means you are going to fail and that is great. Life is meant to challenge and force you to grow, not just acquire one skill and settle for mediocrity until your final days. Success only comes to those who stay dedicated and keep trying no matter how hard something is or how many times they fail. Keep pushing on and you will become stronger and more experienced with each attempt and that is what we like to call a win/win!
Get Real with Your Expenses
It’s easy to mindlessly purchase things just because you have a few extra dollars laying around or because it is on sale, but what if this money was being set aside to give you more freedom? Let’s say you created a budget and discovered you could literally live off $15,000 a year and had a salary of $28,000 a year? You could put the extra $13,000 into a savings or retirement account, but based on statistics, most American’s don’t even put 13% of $13,000 into their savings and retirement funds. You are much more likely to buy a bunch of stuff you will be bored with in a year or don’t even have time to use. If you create a budget and manage to save $13,000 dollars you could take at least 10 months off work to build a new life or just enjoy your freedom. That’s when you can really make changes in your approach to every day life!
Be Grateful For The Life You’ve Designed
You are living a life that you have been the designer of so, either be grateful for it or build something you can be grateful for. With a clear picture of what you want, you can easily take the steps needed to design your ideal life. The secret to moving forward is remaining aware of what you do and don’t want. Designing a happy and fulfilling week is simple, all you have to do is choose to work for and build the week you desire with every single decision.
Stop waiting for a specific place on a calendar to enjoy your life and get to work living 7 days a week!
