“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.” ~C. S. Lewis

In Episode 07, Lin Bruce talked about how she felt lost when she was in her mid-fifties and not knowing what to do and didn't even know how to get out of it. She ended up finding this women's biking group and took her first 3000-mile cross-country trip. In today's episode of Quick Fix Friday, I'm gonna dive deep into the question: How do you dream again? How do we really connect with our dreams? How do we even know what we want out of our life when we're feeling a little bit lost?

My favorite thing to do is to journal about things and I've found a couple of great exercises that have helped me a lot. Here is one exercise:

  1.  Make a list of everything you want to do (both big and small)
  2. List the things you are good at (both things you enjoy doing and aren't doing enough of and the things that give you joy)
  3. List the things that scare you.
  4. Then circle a few of the things that stand out to you.
  5. Now follow the prompt "How might I..." and add that thing to let your brain work on how you can bring that into your life.

For example "How might I...become a rock star".  You never know, that prompt might allow you to become a "local" rock star first to help satisfy that desire. Now get into action  - pick something small and start there.
