I understood who I am, what life I want, what my goals are

I grew up in a family that was not great at showing love, without visions and with wrong beliefs about money, entrepreneurship and risk-taking. It took a long time for me to find out talents, to have dreams and ambitions. I felt lonely, unappreciated, with a low self-esteem and completely lost about who I am, what I want and what my purpose is. I did understand recently some of my talents and what I would like to pursue as a career, but my insecurities made me look at them as a mirage. I was taught to be afraid of money after growing up without and wasting tons of it unconsciously and only driven by negative emotions. I despised sports and physical exercise, and relied on expensive already-made and junk food as I felt so demotivated, without energy and with the lack of will for doing anything. I was always arguing and in tension with my partner. I was afraid of life. Well, my life started to change when my friend Dagmar, a best friend of my partner, told me about the Lifebook Online course and that she was going to do it. I always wanted to do a life-choaching and self-development course but I was always afraid of spending too much money, when I was in fact wasting it in useless things. So I decided to go for it and decide at the end whether I was going to get my money refunded or not. My brain kept screaming “it is a lot of money! Get it back!”. I did right to do it, really right. Even though I still fall back on being unconscious, to have a low mood, to old actions, thinking to old beliefs and thoughts, I know that I have started a change in me and that I have to work hard to make it happen completely, and I can already see the changes. After six weeks I am learning to live my life being conscious and present at all times. I understood who I am, what life I want, what my goals are. I will pursue any dream I have, regardless of what other people say or think. My mood is much higher than before, really much, I do not constantly have anymore negative emotions. I am looking more after myself, what I eat and I do much more exercise: I do go out for jogging, I have started doing some yoga again, I do workout at home and weight-lifting, and I have already lost some kilos. I feel more energetic and ready to face any challenge ahead. I have already got rid of toxic friendships and will choose carefully and consciously who I let in and want in my life. I do not feel anymore that I am lacking money or things, I have such a great sense of abundance, I feel much more relaxed and secure. I am treating my partner much more gently and I am much much more understanding towards his life situation and needs, I am being more kind to him and giving better quality to our lives. I also want to be more often in contact with my relatives, I really miss them as I live abroad. I know that my life purpose is to continue to learning singing, I want to be an artist and an entrepreneur that creates value for others and will leave a positive change on this planet. Jon, you have been the best teacher I ever had, you looked like the fatherly figure I missed giving me all the lessons I needed. I will always be grateful to you for deciding to share, together with Missy, the recipe you used and found out that worked to make who you are. You are such an amazing and inspirational human. Thank you for living a amazing legacy behind you for all of us to enjoy and learn from.
