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! \"\ud83e\udd42\"<\/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

STOP doing business the way the BORING STEPFORD BITCHES OF ONLINE BUSINESS<\/a> are doing theirs… just because “everyone else is doing it that way”.<\/p>\n

STOP being a SLAVE<\/strong> to the directions of OTHERS.<\/p>\n

The one thing they’ll NEVER control or own is your MIND, your DESIRES and your FREEDOM to live. <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
