Can you imagine if you had the same values and beliefs and aspirations as when you were four years old? How about ten? Twenty? Maybe some of the things you wanted then are still relevant, but not all… this is because our maps change.

We each have a map of our world – this tells us where we are going, where we’ve been, what we want, what is important to us, what we will and won’t stand for. This map was and is continually created by our surroundings, the people in our lives, our education, financial standing, location, etc. I can guarantee you that living in a busy city like Sydney, Australia creates a different map for me as compared to living in a slow paced place like near a beach in Tahiti.

Our maps are changeable.

People fall in and out of love all the time, don’t they? Have you ever wondered what the secret recipe is for couples who fall in love and STAY in love?

Is it just a choice thing? I think a few generations ago it was just that – a choice thing… or rather, a must thing. After all, it wasn’t too long ago that marriage was a must for so many things and divorce just wasn’t something that is done.

But now days, things are different. Its not so uncommon for people to be married, (or at least in a committed domestic relationship) a few times in their lives. So, choice still could be an ingredient for long lasting relationships. So could intimacy, respect, trust, commitment, friendship, companionship, growth, etc.

I’ve tried that before; that didn’t work for me; That was too hard.

I hear these ‘excuses’ time and time again from people all around me. We are in a fast paced world and we want instant results. Just last night I bought a new book for my kindle and it wasn’t there within 15 seconds and I wondered if my purchase went through. After a few more ‘refreshes’ the book was magically in its place approximately 20 seconds after purchasing it.

This got me wondering: am I as impatient with normal life as I am with technology?

For anyone who knows me, you know that at heart, I’m an introvert. You will also know that I’m very ambitious and resourceful – and I love my Heidi-Time.

Today, I’d like to share a little bit more about me. The purpose of doing so will hopefully get you to look inside of you and find out what is going to help get you out of your comfort zone and onto the track that will get you to your goals this year.
