What do you think your life would be like if you only chased after what you really, truly wanted?
Instead of what you think you should want? Let’s imagine this (maybe you’ve felt this way before)….
When You Want What “They” Have
I met with a friend recently who said she went hiking after being inspired by my pictures….
And she was miserable
You know why?…..
Because she didn’t want to hike
She thought she did…but that’s not what she was after.
What Was She Really Chasing
