There are some moments in life you will never forget. A few years ago one of my teachers gave a speech that will always stay with me.
The words he spoke were impactful and really changed how I looked at life.
He told us that we must "accept our condition."
What did he really mean?
He meant to accept exactly where you are right now in your life and understand how you got that.
It means looking at all different areas of your life - relationships, body, thoughts and emotions, and your environment (work, natural, etc) - and seeing things as they are...
The other important part? See things as they are and not how you think they should be.
Why is it so important to do this?
It becomes the foundation for the life that you want to build.
Going through this process allows you to step right into building a new life without trying to escape your old one.
If you can accept where you are right now and accept that everything you've chosen in the past has led you right to this point, you will be on your way to creating a completely new life.
So, auditing your life...what does that actually mean in terms of implementation?
The best way I've been able to do this is to get a piece of paper and brainstorm everything surrounding your life at the moment. Where are you at? What has happened in your past that has really affected you?
When you go through this process it really gives you great visual experience of what's going on in your life and how you need to reorganize everything.
You give yourself the chance to really see the landscape and then start creating your future one step at a time.
The other piece of this puzzle is to envision what is in the future for you and to work backwards from there.
Do this step by step and it will help you create a fantastic battle plan.
This will give you a milestone based path instead of going into something completely blind. Then, out of those big milestones, write little lists underneath of, "What do I know now & what do I need to know?"
The what you need to know part of the list should be a hell of a lot longer and more dense than the "what you know" part of the list. Truth is, you only have started to scratch the surface in a world full of knowledge.
So take some time to understand the landscape and begin to invest in yourself so you can start to move forward in this life.
Know that this is only the beginning and the best is coming your way.
This process will do you wonders.
