Do look back… To look back at how far you’ve come

DO look back…

Look back at how far you’ve come…

and let it catapult you forward…

This morning I was browsing through my FB memories for the day, when a post came up from two years ago, a pic of my old front door of my home in London and my thoughts on leaving that day. Reading the post put a massive smile on my face this morning as it really made me think a lot about these last couple of years and what all has happened in the time.

Two years ago today, I actioned a major step in a giant leap into the unknown by closing the door on my home in London for the very last time.

When I look back on what has happened in these last two years, I had a projected idea of what it would be like at the time, but the reality is something I could never have possibly imagined when the reality far surpasses and exceeds anything you could have ever dreamed of or ever imagined. It’s hard to believe that it’s only been two years, when I look at how much life and experiences have been crammed into those two years, it feels so much longer, but the strangest thing is, deep down inside I feel there has been so much bandwidth for more along the way, but the good thing about that is, you know it has so much more capacity for more.

It’s mind-blowing when I think how life has taken a complete turn in every sense of the word “complete”. The experiences I’ve experienced in that short time, are just incredible, where I fully live each and every day, regardless of whether it’s a really good day or a really tough day, it’s still living at an amazing level of abundance of life and experience.

At times it has been more challenging and tougher than I could have ever imagined, but with those times there have also extraordinary times where your mind fails to be able to compute or come to terms with how incredible life and certain moments are, where you question how is it even possible that this is actually happening or that you are experiencing this incredible moment, questioning how is this even real? But it is 100% real, and that just blows my mind sometimes.

So far this has been beyond amazing, beyond my wildest dreams, and it’s safe to say that I have lived more in the past two years than I have ever lived in my entire life, and the crazy and overwhelming thing is… this is only just the start.

When you make the decision to unchain yourself from the chains of life as you know it and leap into the unknown…You begin the greatest journey of a lifetime, and your entire life becomes the greatest, most exciting adventure you could ever possibly dream of, and as I discover more and more every day, it becomes so much more than you could possibly have ever imagined…

A wise grey-bearded salty sailor once told me…

“You cannot hide from destiny, she will find you…”

Follow your gut… it always knows what is best for you!

Good times! 😎🙌⛵️
