Tomorrow is the day

So…tomorrow is the day. I am taking the leap toward a different way of life, the way I’ve dreamt of for a long time. I am leaving the common way of life. The common way being the full time job, with benefits and insurance, and stability, and annoying pressure to help a business succeed so the owners who I barely know can make the extra bucks. In my mind, that is the common way of life. With the great number of corporations in our society, it’s difficult to not work for one. It has become a norm. And there are some people who would love nothing more than to dedicate themselves to their favorite company or to the company that hired them. But I am not one of them, I never have been but also, was never shown any other way.

The corporate way has become the common way of life. We prepare for interviews for these corporate jobs like politicians prepare speeches, we fake it. We must tell them what they want to hear so we get the most votes. But why aren’t we interviewing them to make sure they are who we want to dedicate the majority of our lives to? Why? Because we’re desperate. We usually NEED a job. Because that is what our society tells us. I completely disagree with this way of life. I am not at all saying it is wrong. I am saying it isn’t for me. And I can no longer live a life I don’t agree with. I don’t agree with corporation expectations, I don’t believe in working the way other people want me to, I don’t believe in working the same schedule every week, every season, every year. I believe in living my truth. I believe in giving of myself to those who can utilize my skills for what they are meant for. I am not meant to build sales for corporations. I am meant to heal. I am meant to be available for whoever needs me at any time. I am meant to live freely. People have called me a hippy for a long time, I may as well begin living that way.

And tomorrow is the day. Tomorrow I will notify my boss that I will no longer be a part of this way of life. I could become completely successful, or I could fail beautifully. But if I don’t go for it, I will always regret it. Cliché, I know. But this is biggest chance I have taken this far in my life. I’m thirty-four years old with no children and no baggage. If I don’t do this now, what is going to change? Nothing. Tomorrow is the day.

My last day of work will be September 23, 2016. It is the day after the autumn equinox and the last quarter moon, which is a good time for integration, realignment, responsibility, and completion.

Today is not only Labor Day (a great day to quit my job) but it is the receptive waxing crescent moon, a time for intuition, persistence, opportunity, evolution.

I am evolving, I am growing. We are always changing, we are always learning, we are always growing.

Luck is what happens when opportunity meets preparation.

I am excited to begin my experiment.
