Well - what a year it has been!
Last March (2020), Covid-19 suddenly came into our lives, the school I work in and the tutoring work I do abruptly stopped and we were put into lockdown. Almost immediately, I fell ill with Covid-19 and as I struggled to recover, I listened to and saw what was happening to millions of people around me - fear, anger, grief, financial and career struggles and so much more. As I slowly recovered, my thoughts kept reflecting on my life - Had I got what I wanted from life? What did I want from my life? Where did I see myself living in the future? What did I see myself doing? In my search for some answers I decided to see what self-development courses I could find that might give me some inspiration or tools to help me answer these questions.
Strangely, Mindvalley kept popping up on my Facebook feed, so I thought I'd have a look at what courses were available. I can't quite remember exactly how I found Lifebook Online but I think that there was a free masterclass with Jon and Missy which introduced Lifebook online. And even though I wondered if I could afford it and whether I was wasting my money - knowing that I could ask for a refund, I realised that I didn't really have anything to lose so thought I'd give it a go.
What has this program done for me... well - firstly I am so proud to say that I have completed the whole course. This is a huge accomplishment for me because I have found it difficult to finish other things in the last few years. I have cried a lot as I listened to Jon speaking in the videos for each category, as I have found myself: connecting with his words and the words of other Lifebookers, inspired to search deep into my soul for my own personal beliefs, visions, reasons and actions and empowered to know that I will lead my life rather than my life leading me.
This program has also given me the scope to look at my "whole" self. Previously, I just focussed on one aspect of myself at a time - and so whilst I was doing that, the other parts of my life were being neglected. So now I can see myself standing at the bottom of some beautiful white marble steps. Once they were enveloped in fog and looked unsturdy but now they look safe and are surrounded by sun, blue skies and tropical trees.
They invite me to take that first step and as I do so, I feel a real sense of elation and joy. Thank you Jon and Missy and thank you all the other Lifebookers.
