Live Your Best Life

Crafting a Life You Don't Need to Escape From

Instead of wondering when your next vacation is, maybe you should set up a life you don’t need to escape from. ~Seth Godin

(Updated December 2023) Ever since I bought my Jeep I have began looking at my life in a different way. The time we spend on this earth is limited and so very precious. More recently - when I was about to turn 50 - I decided I needed to make the most of this time. It was vital to my happiness to live my best life.

I believe the meaning behind this quote is rather than just enjoy life while on vacations or holidays, we should strive to make our every day lives the ones we want to be living —every day of the week.

The first step I took to Live My Best Life was to make time to live the life I could enjoy. I started to simplify my life with getting rid of the physical and mental clutter.

By doing this it allows me to enjoy more of my time. However, it is so much more than a simple de-clutter. It is a process and it can take several years before you can perfect it.
