What is Intentional Winning In Life?
So many of us had dreams when we were younger that for this reason or that, we let go of pursuing. Even as adults, things come up that seem exciting or worthwhile, but we believe we aren’t qualified, don’t have time to learn, don’t have the money, or simply don’t feel we can reach the goal. Whatever you think, you’re right! So if you don’t think you can do it, maybe you could think about it in a way that does seem doable to you. Just maybe, there is another way to bring that dream into reality.
Here’s an example (reference the photo above): Let’s say your dream is to go from San Francisco, CA to New York, NY. Most would agree that the fastest, most direct route would be to travel eastbound on highway 80 in one strait shot – the pink road. You’ll see a little piece of green on the pink route which is a planned detour where there’s a break in highway 80. As we do this, plug in life goals and normal activities that come along the way such as going away to college, getting married, having kids, changing jobs, etc. If you think about each of the events in your life that stop your progress to your dream destination, it’s easy to see how we get stalled and eventually “settle down” in Anytown, USA along the way. If you look closely at a United States map, you will see that there are hundreds of other roads to get you to New York from San Francisco – the orange roads. Will it take longer? Yes. Will it cost more? Possibly. Will the journey be full of surprises? Absolutely! When you realize that all those other roads can get you where you want to go, you can see that not only can you make your dream come true, but you may also find other things that make you happy and bring you joy along the way.
I’m going to define IWIL a whole lot more as we continue through this year. I’m also going to show you many things you can do to restart the engine on your dream and start feeling it’s joy this very minute! Let’s get this show on the road and start discovering what the orange roads have to offer.
