Creating Space

Often times in my life I become routined. I wake up at the same time each day, I go to work, I come home, I go to bed. I’d dare to say this is a common routine most working adults have. If we get in this seemingly mundane routine and find little to no fulfillment in it, it’s logical to infer this may be a source of discontent, restlessness, or even depression in our lives. 

In titling this Create Space, I want to use that terminology to mean: use your wiggle room, and use it to find time, find fulfillment in your everyday. Sure it’d be nice if we could all stop our days and jet set around the world to find the time for peace and fulfillment. I’d argue you can create space in your everyday to find the time, the energy, the encouragement to find that fulfillment apart of your everyday.

Why wait to learn to do yoga or learn to paint, or even read that book you’ve had sitting on your nightstand? Take a deep breath and breathe into the wiggle room that exists in your life to be a little selfish and take care of that restlessness in you and do what fulfills you everyday, not just on the weekends or on vacations. You deserve it yesterday, today, and tomorrow!
