Two years ago I made a fundamental shift in my life. I decided to stop waiting for things to happen to me and decided to start doing them. Life is short, and I wanted to be the woman who lived life to it’s fullest instead of wishing things would just turn out in my favor. It’s a simple concept in theory, but to practice it day after day can seem impossible. Where do you even begin?
