Time carries on whether we are keeping track or not...We meet people, form relationships with them, days turn into months and months turn into years and before you know it these people that were once attracted to learning new things about us now know our ins and outs better then we know our own! Unknowingly we become so at ease with these people that we start to rely on them for each happy moment & fun time that we have. So how do we revamp ourselves & stay exciting??! How do we "Madonna" ourselves as the years go on??! Not just to be interesting and awesome to others (esp within a marriage or committed relationship!) but to evolve for ourselves an stay fresh & alive! Here are a few ideas from my brain to yours :)
1. Meet "other" people besides the one's you've known for ages. Put yourself out there in new ways you've never imagined. Maybe a hip hop class (even if you are 60!!!) or a seminar about something that interests you.
2. Read a vastly diff subject than you normally do...and share some of the rad things that have enlightened you about the book for some interesting convo with others.
3. Explore local trails, cafe's or festivals on your very own...even if you look like "Billy No Mates" as my friend Lou would say, lol! Being comfortable on your own if def sexy to others & empowers you in ways that would surprise you.
4. Create! Build, design or construct something that you are proud of. Gardens included! Something that others can see in you that maybe they never knew existed (or maybe you never knew existed!). Whether you think you are Picasso-ish or far from...it's unique because it's from you and it's fresh to YOU.
5. Volunteer your time to others. Don't always be around the same people when you are expected to be around (i.e. Friday work drinks, Midweek coffee with the girls, Sunday brunch at the same place every week). Use your time every now and then to nurture someone else's needs and make a difference. This will open up your Heart Chakra & make you feel great too :)
6. Change your appearance every now and again. It doesn't have to be drastic...Try something subtle like adding something new to your already fab wardrobe. Blogs & Gossip Mags are great for finding things that catch your eye! Coffee + Magazine = Tree, which can be a heavenly scene ;)
7. Make it your goal to discover the next "cool" find. Be it the newest fitness class (like The Orange Theory becoming the "thing" here in Edmonton at the mo), a recent Food Craze like the Milky Bun which seems like it's fast becoming the next Croughnut, or having the latest gossip about a Kinky Fetish that you've read about (making your in-laws blush on a lunch date...Can I say worth it!!!).
***Just Remember***...this is all for your own fulfillment. 90% of your happiness should come from YOU because it isn't anybody else's job to "find you" it's your gig...so make a personal goal, discover yourself all year long and see what you dig up. If nothing else it will be so liberating!
All of My Love Friends! xo
