“Don’t put your life on hold to watch someone else live their dream. Today is the day to resolve to live your dream.” ~Unknown
Until a few weeks ago, I felt like I was putting my life on “hold” waiting for those changes I hinted at earlier to actually happen (hint: they still haven’t happened). I had hit the “hold” button back in September and was listening to elevator music. It wasn’t very good music either! I came to realize I wasn’t being true to myself. I wasn’t following my heart. I wasn’t allowing myself to experience joy and fun at a level that lights my fire. I decided to hang up on the elevator music and take control of my future. With the help of Coach Kelly + support from the Iron Hippie, I am following my heart and have put together a 2018 race schedule that I am SUPER EXCITED about!!
