If you are anything like me, you probably have some pretty big hopes and dreams for how your time is going to play out here on earth. You likely want to feel good so you can give back to your great circle of life + you probably want to be able to look back and feel like you lived out your purpose, love, and passions as much as you could have.
Living a fulfilling life not only feels good in the moment but it can have a HUGE impact on our health, happiness and our relationship with food.
One of my favorite questions to ask my clients is:
"What are you REALLY hungry for?"
Why? Because so often when we are lacking fulfillment in our day-to-day lives we are then trying to eat our way to comfort and pleasure.
Sound familiar?
Unfortunately this approach to fulfillment (i.e. food) doesn't work. I have tried it, and I have witnessed hundreds of women who keep turning to food for pleasure, love, and comfort and it doesn't work for them either.
So, if you were to work on creating the life that would fulfill you, what would that look like?
What are YOU hungry for?
We are going to start with #1 (you can read the original blog post here).
For me, one of the biggest tools to finding fulfillment in my life begins with how I spend my time. What do I do with my schedule to support what I WANT in my life?
For example... If I want more yoga in my week, I have to SCHEDULE it! If I want more time to write for my business, I have to SCHEDULE it.
"If it isn't scheduled it isn't real."
So this week I am giving you a BLANK IDEAL CALENDAR template to create your IDEAL week, and include everything you can to make your life exciting, fulfilling and balanced.
Bonus: I am also attaching MY IDEAL CALENDAR in case you missed it last time.
I just finished mine for the fall a few weeks ago, and I have to say, life DID get more fulfilling. I love my new schedule.
{Do I always make it happen just right? Absolutely not. But it is a great template with which to work towards my fulfillment and it includes almost every single thing I want in my life..}
Here are your Ideal Calendar Instructions:
1. Write a list of all the things you want to include in your ideal week. Be sure you are being reasonable! It is important to be realistic here. What are your priorities? Make sure you include work, free time, and downtime.
2. Prioritize the list with the most time consuming stuff at the top and the least time consuming at the bottom.
3. Download the template. You can do that above on the link. It is customizable, meaning you can change colors, the font, the size of the time modules. If you do not know excel, you can just click each box and type in your event. You can also create your own calendar if you want to use your artistic side.
4. Start with the largest time events first. This is the part that is like putting together a puzzle. This is the puzzle that = your fulfillment so take your time. Be patient. Stay with it. Believe in possibility and happiness.
5. Share it with us! We can all use some fresh perspective. If you save this as a PDF or take a picture you can post it to our FaceBook page.
