The road less traveled...

Do you feel like you put unnecessary pressure on yourself? Always looking to meet a deadline or someone else's expectations? Sometimes we need to slow down and take a walk down that grassy, untrod  lane. When we are always on the run, literally, it can take a toll on our brains as well as our bodies. We need to exercise but we also need days off to recharge our batteries. When you have a family to take care of, a boss to impress, and friends who always bend our ear with their problems, it can be overwhelming and draining.

Maybe you have dreams of quitting your job and starting your own business. It takes a lot of nerve to follow your passion. A regular paycheck is great but sometimes the reward of being your own boss can outweigh the risks involved in quitting that stressful nine to five. You will have to be creative to make sure you can pay your bills but in the end but it could make all the difference.

 Carve out some time for yourself; to take a walk or a hike and enjoy the beauty that surrounds us all the time. Leave the devices at home and listen to the natural world. There are many other sounds out there that are worth listening to. You might even hear your own thoughts for a change.
