The Work You Do Now Does NOT Have To Be The Work That You Will Always Do.
(HINT:- You are NOT as trapped as you think you are)!
I was telling a friend yesterday about a couple and their young kids who are now really living the DYAL lifestyle.
DYAL = Discover Your Alternative Lifestyle!
They have lived all their life in Australia.
Living the typical life.
Get married.
Have kids.
Work your arse off, slaving all the hours God sends in order to provide your family with what everyone thinks should be the …norm.
The norm = conform to the norm.
We do it because that is what we have been processed to do all our lives.
Fit in and do what everyone else does.
Live your life like everyone else does.
Why?
Because it’s… the norm.
A life of conformity.
So, where were we? Oh yes…
This couple and their young kids.
They’re in their mid thirties this couple. One day, a little over a year ago they did what I teach in my DYAL program.
They actually stopped and really thought about where they were in life and more importantly…
Were they HAPPY?
Most people don’t do that. They just carry on going through the motions regardless. Without ever stopping to get clarity on whether the life they are living is actually the life they WANT to be living.
Because most people are too busy just existing to ever actually have a LIFE.
So this couple took the DYAL path and one day decided that although they had the nice house and car and the boat on the drive, they were both working too bloody hard to ever use the damn boat. It was just standing in their drive as a little bit of a status symbol of conformity.
Long, boring hours at work meant the time they actually were getting to be together as a family and do things together, were virtually non-existent.
15 hour days were the norm for him and his wife was exhausted as well, juggling…
