Live Out Loud

 “If you ask me what I came to do in this world, I will tell you, I came to live out LOUD.” ~Émile Zola
I have been pondering this quote for a few days.

After reading some bits and bobs about what it really means to "Live Out Loud" I've decided to share some of the points with you.

Live your life on purpose. Ive left life up to circumstance in the past which has made decisions for me but surely we should be doing things by making deliberate choices?

I have decided that making deliberate choices will enable me to combat fears and reach my potential.  I talk about moving away and starting a new adventure all of the time, I think talking about it and aknowledging that it is going to happen is the first step of the journey and the more I talk about it out loud the more excited I become to continue with the journey and grab the opportunities that come my way. I feel in control and as if I am living my life for a purpose!

Take yourself on a date. I do this one all the time, it usually involves a book, a cafe and people watching, listening to snippets of peoples conversations can sometimes inspire me and if it doesnt inspire me it usually makes me laugh! Living out loud is playing out loud if you have someone to join you or not! You never know who you might end up striking a conversation with!

Live in the question. Dont allow youself to put up limitations. You can be, do or have anything you want, instead of saying "i cant do that" ask yourself "How could I do that?" There is always a way!

Know your own value. There may be people who are more skilled, intelligent or more talented that you but you have something to offer too.Do not diminish your worth and dont let anyone else do that either. Stop idolizing other peoples gifts and start idolizing your own, OUT LOUD!!

Give yourself permission. To make mistakes and to shine, to accept, to get angry, to go to sleep early, to scream, to take the day off. We all have mood swings we win some we lose some, life is now.

Be authentic. The most successful are the ones who are authentic, the ones that dont follow the crowd, the ones who declare who they are regardless of who agrees with them. Fortune favours the bold

Stop waiting. You are here and this is now, be creative with what you have right now, dont put your life on pause.
March to the beat of your own drum, hear your own music, no one elses!  Your task is to find your own Om! Your life force vibration, life pattern or purpose, your song or melody . Find it, claim it, express it. (I think this is my favourite)

Inspired? I am! x
