Life Is What You Make It.
If you could live your life however you want with NO limitations, what would it look like?
A question I used to ask myself almost daily.
For me it was spending endless time with my kids, watching them grow and learn, travelling to any location we wanted, being present and available to my kids and going on the most epic adventures as a family without the financial stress and the time restrictions of a 9-5 job.
A few years ago if you had told me this would be my reality in just a few short years, I would have laughed - Not us, we aren't that lucky.
I've come to realise it's not about luck. It's about going out and making it happen, taking control of the situation, doing whatever it takes to make that dream life a reality.
We often talk about how different our life would be if we had let fear stand in our way. We certainly wouldn't be travelling Australia full time or spending as much time together as a family. We would be in the same situation day in day out and still struggling financially.
Our life and the childhood our kids will remember forever would look completely different to what we have been able to give them.
We made a choice to step out of our comfort zone and away from the struggle.
This is a decision we will be forever proud of ourselves for as it changed the course of our life as a family.
We no longer take our phone to the grocery store to calculate every item to ensure we can afford basic groceries for the week.
We no longer make decisions based on the opinions of others or our financial situation. We make decisions based on what we want.
Our life has changed in so many ways in such a short amount of time, life is what you make it and it's way too short to sit around wondering what could have been.
Don't waste a single second on what if, stop making excuses and start living life on your terms.
