How to Get What You Want When You Want It: Place Your Order and Let It Be in Transit
Dream big. Place your order. Then go live your life while it's on the way.
This encore episode invites you to think about getting what you want out of life the same way you might think about placing an online order.
First, you have to decide what you want.
Place your order. DREAM. DREAM BIG.
Then? You don't sit at the front door refreshing the tracking page every five minutes. You go about your life.
Slow down. Unplug. Go within. Decide on purpose what matters to you and what doesn't. Pay attention to the things you can actually do today to change the direction of your life.
Stephanie encourages you to take small, helpful actions every day while letting go of the frantic need to know exactly when everything will arrive.
Use the daily journaling worksheets. Listen to things that lift you up. Decide that you are in charge of the choices you make today and that you can take meaningful steps toward a better life.
And then trust.
Your order is in transit.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- How to get clear about what you actually want from life
- Why dreaming big can be part of a Slow Living practice
- How daily habits and small actions can move you toward your goals
- Why you don't have to obsess over when or how everything will happen
- How unplugging and going within can help you make more intentional choices
- Why taking responsibility for your daily choices can change your direction over time
Try This
Think about something you genuinely want in your life.
Place your order.
Write it down. Get specific. Dream bigger than you normally would.
Then ask yourself:
What can I do today?
Take that step—and then go live your life.
You don't have to spend the rest of the day staring at the tracking information.
A Slow Living Reminder
You can want more for your life without rushing to make it happen.
Dream. Take the next small step. Then let yourself live in the meantime.
Your order is in transit.
