It isn’t easy but it is worth it

I have a client who is in a marriage that is not working out. All of the signs point to simply getting a divorce. She wanted to move forward with the process, when suddenly one day she says she wants to go for marriage counselling and save the marriage.

This is okay, as it is her choice to make and everyone should always do what feels best for them to do. However, I left her with one question, and that is “Do you want to save your marriage or save yourself from a divorce?”

I believe that when it comes to making big decisions in life that have a major impact in our lives, we tend to go with the less painful option. The choice of least trauma and difficulty. It is frightening. I know that. But the light is at the end of the dark tunnel. If you keep standing where you are, you will never move forward or get to the other side.

The Chinese have a proverb, “Rather live one day as a tiger, than a lifetime of living as a sheep.”

Do something incredible with your life. Make life worth living. What frightens me the most is living an ordinary and plain life. I remember reading (and I paraphrase) that religion is for those who don’t want to go to hell, life is for those who have already been there.
Heaven exists on the other side of “hell”, you have to go through life’s battles in order to experience “heaven”, joy, peace, bliss….

Do the thing you are scared to do. You will be supported and guided. Choose to finally live an authentic life. You only remember living once, why not make it a damn great memory?

It’s adventure time!

Love,
