I’m sitting at my home office right now, typing these words, and considering how blessed I am to be living this life.
I want to show you how I’ve been able to create a life that I love, some of the struggles I went through to get here, and maybe some incentive for you to have more of the same, and better…
I also love talking about this life, business and big dreams stuff. So, here goes–
(This will only be about a minute or two of reading, so bear with me, because this one’s important.)
My quest, my victory and my eventual failure
A long time ago, I set out on a journey in search of the secret to true happiness.
In short, after nearly a year wandering throughout India with my video camera, my dream and a big ole’ crazy heart full of passion, I figured it out. It was simple really, and so beautiful! Pure bliss. Truly amazing wisdom…
But finally it wasn’t all that simple.
When I got back home the world crumbled around me, I had very little support and I fell into a deep abyss, worsened only by the tragic death of my sister in an accident.
I cleaved strongly to my dream and the knowledge and understanding I had gained, but eventually I succumbed to depression, the numbing effects of alcohol and a somewhat miserable life working as a full time production coordinator for “Reality” TV shows in LA.
You can imagine the challenges of trying to share the “secrets of happiness” from that perspective.
How I turned it around
I was still committed to my “great work,” so I began searching for ways to pull myself out of the mud.
It started with building my own website for the Happiness Project (a project i started shooting in 2004!). Then I got an offer to build a website for a good friend of mine and her popular raw food restaurant in Santa Monica. Soon I had completely left behind the production world, and started this amazing business creating websites and online consulting for people who are doing good work in the world.
Now I’ve come full circle, and started doing a fabulous hybrid coaching, consulting, social media and online development service for my clients. It’s a LOT of fun, and it works!
I’ve learned that in order to have real, lasting happiness, you need to be:
1) Doing work that you love, and that you’re in 100% alignment with; and
2) Spending more time (as much as possible) pursuing the deepest PASSION and callings of your heart.
The most important thing is, you want to stay true to your heart, and live by your passion (…and maybe even convert your passion into your thriving business).
The thing is, with the tools available today, it’s never been easier to promote your business and your passion online, and to create simple, gorgeous, interactive websites that bring in more business.
My passion is in service and transformation. That’s my business. I’ve been able to finally experience a total transformation from this experience, and from the empowering strength it gives me. I’m also spending more time pursuing my passions, and developing new projects, as I learn to balance work and life better.
The best part is, being able to help others to do the same.
I just want to ask you this:
What, if anything, do you still want in your life? – Are you really, truly living a life in alignment with your spirit?
It all starts with a little clarity, vision, and inner insight to listen to your heart and hear its calling. With a strong passion-driven goal in mind, you can literally create anything you wish, and in a very short time frame.
The one question:
Take a moment today, and review this question for yourself. Just ask yourself: “what do I want?” It can be so simple, yet so hard to answer. Write it down. Think forward a little bit. It’s pretty amazing (especially when you find the answer).
The Final Step
I can tell you that having a website you can update yourself, add new blog posts to it whenever you want, and leverage it to interact with amazing like-minded souls online — is more empowering and fulfilling than pretty much anything else I’ve ever done (and profitable).
It’s a cool solution, especially if you want to build a new website or blog in alignment with your spirit and passion, redo an existing site, or add a blog to your site, and do it for WAY less than a standalone website from the ground up.
