Are you doing what you truly want to do?

Are you?

This is the one question that pushes things forward in hyper-speed when I really answer it.

Everyone I know needs to stop from time to time and see where they’re at- (especially me!)- and these compelling (albeit simple) questions have a way of uncovering the stuff that gets missed in the whirl of life every day.

Here’s to asking the hard ones… and letting the answers move you forward!
