Celebrating Freedom
Today
is the last day of Natalie's 10 Day Freedom Plan Blog Challenge.
Here
I am on the last day of the challenge. Today, I will talk of the journey to freedom.
When I started the challenge I just took it up to see
what it felt like on this journey. It was perfect timing as I had not written
anything on my blog since February'16. Seven long months with no blog. I wanted to
test the waters, writing a few words every day once again.
This blog post is in response to Natalie’s 10 Day Freedom Plan Blog Challenge Day 10
My Journey
It
has been a fantastic journey, discovering new things with each challenge.
Challenge
Day 1 – Finding Focus led me to find ‘fear of acceptance’ and ‘lack of
discipline’ holding me back from living the life I want to.
Challenge
Day 2 – Discovering your Why led me to identify I belong to freedom and
freedom to me. I identified the path of sustainability with the fear of failure
cannot be lived and that it is possible anytime, anywhere and anyhow.
Challenge
Day 3 – Creating a vision for future that I can conceive, believe and
achieve.
Challenge
Day 4 – Unlocking your super powers led me to find the fact that I
cherished freedom, enthusiasm for things new and individuality.
Challenge
Day 5 – Setting yourself up for Success led me to find the reason why I
burned out, lacked focus and motivation to work. Burning the midnight oil, not enough
sleep was not setting me up for success. I have begun to make a conscious effort
in using the Pomodoro technique introduced by Natalie.
Challenge
Day 6 – Finding your Tribe made me realize that a tribe will help me hold.
I need to find one to collaborate with.
Challenge
Day 7 – Beating Procrastination and overwhelm made me realize the
importance of taking action even if it is imperfect. No one is born perfect. Life
is a journey from imperfection to perfection.
Challenge
Day 8 – Choosing your adventure helped find ‘me’ and that I should be part
of the freedom lifestyle.
Challenge
Day 9 – Location independence showed me how I could work at any location
besides home and enjoy at the same time, with a little bit of faith, action, perseverance,
patience and time.
The Experience
The
challenge helped me reflect on various aspects – some hidden and others known.
I enjoyed facing every challenge where the day 7 challenge threw me off balance
where it took me time to identify the fact that even an imperfect step is a
step towards perfection that I was not willing to take. Pointing at the fear of
failure.
Finally,
I did take the step. The challenge was like removing leaves on the cabbage and
what it takes to live a freedom lifestyle and enjoy it.
My Favourite challenge and Why
Challenge
Day 8 – Choosing your adventure was my favorite. It helped ‘find me’ so
that I could live a sustainable life I discovered on day 2 of the challenge.
My Takeaway from the Challenge
A
little bit of faith, action, perseverance, patience and time will make my dream
of a sustainable living come true. I want the people in my tribe to know that
it is possible anytime, anywhere and anyhow.
Next Step
Where
do I go from here? Letting go of the challenge is important, for this is where
I step into the real world without fear and with discipline. Find and collaborate
with a tribe and write my blog every day. If I slip, I have the challenge blogs
to remind me what I once committed.
A
word of Thanks to Natalie Sisson, who was my inspiration all throughout. I must mention a special thanks to all bloggers in the challenge as they were a
source of inspiration. I look forward to a new me, with a zeal.
Thank
you once again for the challenge, Natalie.
