I have been posting more often on LinkedIn because I want to practice writing. A writer tapping away on her laptop surrounded by white noise of chatters in a crowded coffee shop is a typical movie scene I secretly envied all my life.
I have put off many secret dreams in the last decades, and something happened.
- I got sick. I forgot how to breathe normally.
- Insomnia took over my nights.
- The constant urge to meet financial targets amplified my anxiety.
- Time became nonexistent. I worked from 7am to 11pm 6 days a week.
Then things changed…
- I turned 50.
- I walked away from the only career I knew.
I have always known I needed a change, but I was way too invested in my career to try anything new.
Then I asked myself, what if…
🎈I dig up some of those dreams I put away and see what I can make of them.
🎈What if I go crazy and spend one year doing what I would not dare to do before?
In 2022, I fulfilled one of my many dreams to become a Certified Coach.
I want 2023 to be even more interesting. Young people are very comfortable sharing their uncharted journey, so I will follow their lead in representing my age group.
Have you listened to the lyrics of “Daydream” by Lily Meola? I love it!
What are some of your tucked-away dreams?
