When I grew up there were two things I wanted to be An Olympic athlete either in waterpolo or running and or The Prime Minister of Straya Mate I was running at an international level in my late teens and played at national level in waterpolo too But when I finished school reality checked in I was from a good family but not a wealthy one I had to work So the athlete dream went I wanted to be the Prime Minister because I thought it was actually about making a difference Helping people As I got older I learned politics was more of a game then it was about being a good heart So I let that idea go to I m not sure I would have ever made it anyway lol Now I m just me A woman an ordinary girl a mum a yoga teacher a personal trainer an author a human Nobody knows me when I walk down the street But I realized one thing our dreams aren t a destination and our joy doesn t come from getting to some point It s really about us choosing to live our dreams anyway even if they don t tick boxes we may have set for accomplishments I personally may not be the Olympian I dreamed of But I m still pretty stoked at nearly 40 I am doing things like this I thought would never be possible for me even in my 20s and at nearly 40 here I am doing my impossible Because break impossible down into small steps consistently over the years impossible becomes I m possible My other dream of helping people also came true It may not be on the big scale I hoped but in small random acts of kindness I can make a difference every day to It is a great thing to realize that by continuing to show up for ourselves and live our dreams without a destination We can get a lot of satisfaction and joy too and still achieve amazing things It s you vs you always Not you vs the destination or another What are your dreams and how are you chasing them Comment below Link on socials at p treon for full shoot
