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 |

I hope you had a great weekend; if you're here in the States (so cool that this is an international publication now) I hope you had a safe and family-filled Fourth of July holiday weekend. Ours was very low-key. Tons of time in the pool. World Cup on the TV or iPad to watch outside.Cooking out.And sadly, the boys were off doing their own things — Leo at Indiana University for soccer camp, Roman hanging out with his friends, and Silas even bailed on us for a few hours on the Fourth to be with...
I have a pretty extensive library of books—more books than I care to admit. The majority of the books are “business” books, and very few would be considered pleasure reading. I mean, I enjoy reading them, but most people don’t find finance, spirituality, mindset, religion, and other books that have helped me develop my understanding of the Authentic Life. I wanted to start a book that was purely for pleasure this holiday weekend. There wasn’t anything in my library that fit what I was looking...
Eleven years ago today, I grabbed my laptop and sat down at the table on the screened-in porch at my cousin’s house in Western Pennsylvania. We were visiting family back in my parents’ hometown, so I was just planning on doing a little business planning work, as I was in the waiting period for my firm to be approved by Indiana, before we set out to visit family. I logged into my email and saw a message from the Secretary of State’s office, and I immediately opened it. It was at that moment...
