Living Your Life on Autopilot!"},"content":{"rendered":"
If there’s one thing we know for sure in life – it’s that life crawls along until you’re about 18 – and then it fucking flies by! <\/p>\n
Summers that felt like they’d never end when you were 8 years old, suddenly seem to be over in a flash when you’re 40 – the seasons roll continuously and it’s all too easy to feel like time is slipping away from us and we never get to catch up.<\/p>\n
But what if you could change all that?<\/p>\n
What if you could STEP OFF the fucking HAMSTER WHEEL<\/strong> and start living the way you WANTED to?<\/p>\n To make every day yours.<\/p>\n There’s a secret – psssst! It’s for women only! <\/p>\n Are you ready?<\/p>\n Here goes:<\/p>\n LOWER YOUR PEOPLE-PLEASING STANDARDS!<\/strong><\/p>\n Seriously! Nobody gives a fuck if you didn’t wipe the toast crumbs off the breakfast counter this morning. <\/p>\n Nobody gives a fuck if there’s a dusty-bunny behind the TV.<\/p>\n Nobody gives a fuck if your Hygge<\/em> blanket smells a touch too much of dog.<\/p>\n There are SELF-IMPOSED LIMITS<\/span><\/strong> – and… I’m guessing that the remedying of these ‘problems<\/em>‘ aren’t going to feature highly on your list of “activities which bring me joy<\/em>” any time soon! <\/p>\n STOP trying to be everything to random people who DO. NOT. MATTER.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n STOP caring that you might be caught “on the hop<\/em>” and less than perfect.<\/p>\n The people who TRULY matter DGAF that you’ve not filled the dishwasher for 2 days.<\/p>\n The people who LOVE you don’t care that the last time you saw an iron was when you were hunting under the kitchen sink for a candle during a power-cut.<\/p>\n Living your life on auto-pilot is just completing a list of tasks set by SOMEBODY<\/span> else<\/em> – which you’re imposing upon yourself because… <\/p>\n Well, I don’t know the fuck why.<\/p>\n Because to step off the wheel it means you have to admit to yourself you’re not perfect?<\/p>\n Because it’s easier to step in with the herd than think about how you’re living your life and claim it as a “fuck no!”?<\/p>\n Because it’s what you’ve always done and you’re scared people will think less of you? <\/p>\n Living on auto-pilot is just doing all the stuff you really “don’t wanna<\/em>“, but you do anyway, regardless of whether they bring you any peace – because it’s easier to copy, to follow – than to STEP UP AND LEAD<\/strong>.<\/p>\n LEADING IS HARD<\/span><\/strong>!<\/p>\n There’s a world of difference between being an utter dick to everyone you meet – and unleashing your inner SELFISH BITCH<\/a> – but it really is time to UNLOCK YOUR OWN SHACKLES<\/strong> and start living life on your own terms.<\/p>\n Life.<\/p>\n Your business.<\/p>\n Your vision.<\/p>\n Your choice. <\/p>\n
