A few moons ago, a wise man spoke to me and said, “ Life begins outside of your comfort zone.” And from that day forward, I’ve been living life on the edge — and here’s why:

YOU HAVE TO FULLY SEND IT !!!!

In our day to day lives, we have a series of choices we make that essentially determine the outcome of our day. First, we’re blessed with another opportunity to wake up and breath; Ahhhhhhh!!! the smell of seizing the day ☺️. Secondly, we decide how to move forward: do we brush our teeth right away or wait for like 30 minutes as we get adjusted ? Do we work out in the am or wait till the wee-hours of the night?Do we scroll endlessly until we feel inspired or do we start off the morning with a meditation? Either way, we have a decision to make that, little do you know, sets the tone of the day.

Now don’t get me wrong, you also have the choice to change for a desired outcome and turn the day around, all with the right attitude. But with our habits and actions compounded overtime, we begin to start a routine that sets the precedent for how we operate on a day to day basis. This forms our lifestyle.

Take time today to reflect and ask yourself: what does my lifestyle look like? What would I like it to be? What are the next steps to achieve the lifestyle in which I want to live?

If it is adventure you seek, the change starts from within. And it takes the leap to ignite the flame of a whole new world for yourself. Need a lil’ help? No need to fear, 5K is here to help! Follow along for tips, routines, and trip advice to kickstart your adventurous life.
