"lifestyle business"

Hey friend, 

Here’s the thing….

Doing work u enjoy

Where ever you want

And whenever you want

Is not the ultimate goal. 

It’s not some place you arrive at, some end of the road.

It is surely only the starting point 

It’s the bare minimum

The most basic foundation

And it’s where the journey of creation begins.

Once you have this, then you can begin to enter greater & more authentic levels of creation

Begin to ask the significant & subtle questions 

And determine what it is that you are truly here to create with your life.

The goal is not to have some lifestyle business that gives you a lot of free time to lay on the beach and drink aperol spritz. (Though i’ve done my fair share of that)

The goal is uncover your mission. The thing that you are here to bring forward. 

Your life’s work. 

Your obsession. 

The thing that you are willing to go all in on

No matter the cost

No matter the distance 

No matter the uncertainty

I set myself free very early in life. 

But it would be a shame to use that freedom just to chase pleasure & distraction

In the absence of the creation of my highest expression.
