0:02:19 - (Kevin Lowe): Needless to say, a kid's dream, well, it didn't quite work out the way I planned. But here to say I understand the power of a vacation. Back in 2017, I had another powerful moment happen. I went out to California, to Los Angeles, and spent a week not as a tourist, but just living normal life. And I can tell you one thing, that when I returned home, I was so sad. It was like for the first time in my life, I saw what else was out there.

0:04:52 - (Kevin Lowe): Chances are if you're having these thoughts, you might be tired of a life that looks good on paper, that it checks all the boxes, it meets all the goals, but at the end of the day, you can't help but feel empty and you don't know why. And you probably feel like there's something wrong with you. But there isn't anything wrong with you because the fact is true. You just want more. You may, you might not even know what more is, but that's okay.
::
0:06:12 - (Kevin Lowe): I want you to allow yourself to think. To let your mind wander. To let your mind wander like the breeze. See where it goes. Don't fight it. Don't force it. Just let yourself dream. Sometimes I like to say that we need to go back to a child's mindset where anything and everything is possible. And, well, I believe as children, we really know how it is in life, how it should be. So I encourage you to harness this time and let your mind wander.
::
0:07:32 - (Kevin Lowe): And it's so important to get clear on what that is. Over these summer days, I hope you will reflect on these three questions. They're simple, yet powerful. They say a lot, they're going to show you a lot. And while you're continuing to enjoy this summer, just think about them. What I'm talking about today, it's not about you creating concrete plans, having all the answers. No. It's just you being able to harness the season of summer, the beauty of summer.
::
0:08:39 - (Kevin Lowe): Envision it. Where do you want to be right now? Where do you want to be tomorrow? What are you doing? Who are you with? What do you look like? Map it all out. Figure it all out. Summer, it's a perfect opportunity to harness all of that. Now, if you want to get really technical with this approach, I'm going to give you some other ideas. And that's going to start with you setting aside what I'm going to call a daily reflection time.
::
0:09:43 - (Kevin Lowe): What kind of legacy do I want to leave behind? What do I want my kids to remember me for? And what is it that has you wanting more? What is it that's missing from life right now? Three questions that I encourage you every day to think about. Now, maybe you get pretty much crystal clear on them all then. Fantastic. Expand a little bit more, then really start to think, how can we make all of this stuff come together?
::
0:10:52 - (Kevin Lowe): Staying inside, well, it just became a part of our life. But I encourage us all, I encourage you to get out there and enjoy life, to go places and do things. It does wonders for us. And for your mindset and a life of fulfillment, its absolutely necessary. And remember, its summertime. Im talking fun here. Maybe its you even just picking up a new hobby, starting a new craft project, doing something that you enjoy, that lights you up, that makes you go to bed at the end of the day with a smile on your face.
::
0:12:04 - (Kevin Lowe): So if there's something weighing heavy on your heart, something that you truly want, but you just don't know how to get there, well, hey, why don't you take advantage of that free 30 minutes coaching session where you just have to text summer 2024 to 3377 and I can help you figure this all out together.
