Its a simple enough phrase. It is so little, and yet means so much.
I find my life is constantly falling into a rut. The same things for dinner, the same netflix seasons. I'm comfortable. I have little to propel me forward, little to change me, because from where I'm sitting, life is good.Every once in a while, however, a thought strikes me. "What if there's more? Be extraordinary." Today is one of those days. I woke up at the same usual time, took the same route to work, and will do the same few tasks, until I go home the same way I always do, and complete the same few daily chores. There is a simple elegance in this routine, a quiet dignity in sameness. It's a style that works for a lot of people.
To me, however, there's more. I have an ever-constant whisper in the back of my mind, itching me to move, or travel, or shake things up...or all of the above. I'm sitting here today wondering what "more" will look like. What does it look like to fulfill my life's mission. To find that "thing" that will quiet the whisper. It's not that I crave things, or more money. I crave flexibility, and experience. I crave the ability to grow and change, and be different from what I was 6 months ago. I crave change.
I've found a few experiences that will change my reality. The kind of experiences that will alter the course of my life. I yearn for these experiences, and will be working towards them.
Big things are in store for me this year. Big things with the promise of change.
I'm working on being extraordinary. Working towards beating the things that scare me, and overcoming the things that will hurt me.
I will be extraordinary.
