I think we all can be guilty of rushing through our lives. We can't wait for the weekend. We can't wait for vacation. We can't wait to get married. We can't wait until our kids are older. We can't wait to get through (fill in the blank). And there's nothing wrong with being excited about those things or looking forward to them. I get that, trust me. But don't go on autopilot until then! Don't miss all the glorious in-between. This time of year is historically the most insane for me. And typically, I would just go into survival mode for several weeks, rushing through it as fast as possible to just get through it, until I dragged myself across the finish line bloodied and bruised. Dramatic much? Well, after several years of this, I decided that I wanted to try a different approach. One where I woke up every day and intentionally CHOSE to love life, the good and the bad. Listen as I share my experience and all the wisdom. xx - stv
