865. What Do You Want From Life?

If nothing was considered unrealistic or impossible, what would you want out of life? This question came up in a book that I’m reading, The Rhythm of Life by Matthew Kelly, and Chris and I discuss exactly what our answers are to that question. We’ve been putting so much thought into what it means to build a life that we love and what needs to happen in order to achieve that. Really getting clear about your answer to this question will help support and guide you when making bold and scary dream-building decisions. We also talk about the importance of taking on challenges and knowing when to close the chapter of something that you’ve outgrown.
