a simple focus for living your authentic life
|
I had a simple idea last night. To live your authentic life, you just need to be your authentic Self. While it is exciting to think about a more authentic life and all of the good that will come with it, there is no way of knowing if the details of the authentic life you envision are what you will actually experience. There’s a chance that by fixating your attention on the details of the life you are pursuing, you may miss paths to a life more true to your authentic Self. But if you focus on living true to your Self and being the most authentic version of it each day, your authentic life will unfold as it should. This doesn’t mean you don’t think about what your future Self might be like—who you would like to become, because I do believe in the law of attraction and manifestation, but the majority of your effort should be on going inward and connecting with your Self, finding the confidence to bring that version out, and continuing to be true to your authentic Self. This sounds easy, but I’ve found that it’s not. Most people might only know a fraction of their authentic Self and struggle with finding the confidence to share even that fraction with the world. The work that needs to be done in order to walk the path of your authentic life begins with truly understanding who you are and meeting your authentic Self. 🎧 Listen to today's Note on the LifeDesign+ podcast. See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC |

This morning I sent a voice note to an old friend of mine. I say old because, over the last few years, our friendship faded, and I’m not really sure why. The story I’ve told my Self to accept the loss of this friend is that sometimes people come into our lives for a specific reason and time, which may not be as long as we’d like. As I’ve evolved, numerous relationships that were really important to me have evolved, and it has been much easier to see why and be at peace with the natural...
“Your new life is going to cost you your old one.” -Brianna Wiest This quote might sound scary because the cost of your old life is comfort, familiarity, and might even extend to friends, career, and other hard-to-let-go parts of your life. But, if your new life is your Authentic Life, the excitement of possibility and the feeling of alignment will outweigh the fear of letting go. If you’re not living the life you feel called to live, keep exploring and experimenting until you discover your...
One of my favorite J. Cole songs right now is 99 Build Freestyle off his Birthday Blizzard mixtape that he released leading up to the release of his album The Fall Off. For those who grew up on 90’s hip hop, the song is over the iconic Lox Money, Power, & Respect beat—it’s high energy and gets me hyped for the day, which is why it’s one of the first songs I listen to in my car. The title of the song, 99 Build, refers to the perfect build of a player in video games, specifically the NBA 2K...
