Yesterday was a big anniversary for me – exactly 11 years ago, on 11/11/10 I moved to London.
I consider that the most important day of my life (so far).
It’s exciting to look back on the wonderful life I have had and say with absolute certainty that it was the best decision I have ever made, but back then, 11 years ago, I was petrified. Willingly leaving behind everything that was familiar and comfortable, heading towards uncertainty..
I had no idea how or what I was going to do, but the goal was to acquire a university degree..
After graduating from high school, I was expected to study, in order to get a good job and then have a “good life”
We follow this framework, because it promises us something, because we, ourselves, don’t see a vision for ourselves, and if we do, most of the times, we don’t believe ourselves and our capabilities..
I refused to follow the path.
Deep down I knew there was something more for me, so 11 years ago, when I boarded that flight to London, I begun my journey.
It hasn’t been all easy. It really hasn’t! But the life I have had – it’s so much more than what the framework promised.
I have travelled the World and manifested my dream life. Things have always worked out for me, when they don’t, I remind myself that “everything happens for a reason”.
I suppose it's one of my very good qualities - I choose to see the good.
Sometimes things won’t make sense - there will be no explanation as to why you feel a certain pull towards something. A desire to move, to explore, to start new.
When that happens - I urge you to go. Take that leap of faith. Believe in yourself.
Follow your dreams.
Shake the fear away.
Universe rewards the bravery.
I don’t know what my life would have been like if I didn’t get on that plane 11 years ago
(trust me, I was very hesitant),
but I am certain that It was the most important day of my life.
It was the day when my life really begun!
And I have never had any regrets.
