I realised that, on some level, we all think there’s ‘something more’ to life… Whether it’s a holiday in the Caribbean, a designer handbag, new car, dream job, or relationship, most of us are always striving for something that will make us happy, be who we’ve always wanted to be and want for nothing ever again. I think on some level, that’s good because we all need things to work towards and aim for but the trick is in valuing what you have right now which, as quotes tell us, is something you once wanted! And not pinning your happiness to one future thing. The pursuit of ‘more’ in itself is good in that we don’t rest on our laurels…we aspire to be better than we are, the best possible versions of ourselves and that is a positive thing…but to truly get there means valuing who you are and what you have right now so you can expand on that.

And there are lots of smaller ways to create a feeling of ‘something more’ in your life which are achievable, realistic and fulfilling. I plan to share some of ideas in this blog that I have tried and hope they might help inspire others.
