Keeping the Faith big full Keeping the Faith


A Quest for the Ultimate Lifestyle rewards are huge, but so are the challenges.

Breaking free of tradition to create and live your best life, the life of your dreams, is possible. Difficult, but possible.

Herd mentality and peer pressure are powerful forces in our lives and influence our behavior and way of thinking without us even realizing. We live in a world that knows no other life, except the default one. Most people had wild dreams of success and riches and living fabulous lifestyles, but as they grew up, the heavy responsibilities and expectations of the rat race lifestyle killed those dreams. While their dreams may never be forgotten, the fact that they live such a static existence with minimal stimulation serves to dampen their belief in themselves and resigned to the mistaken sentiment that their dreams are simply a fantasy from their naive youth and up until the last decades, they were right to think this. The arrival of commercial aviation and internet has dramatically changed our lifestyles and opportunities to an extent that the older generations simply do not comprehend.  While we are more free today than at any other time in human civilization to act and think as we wish, we still have to resist societies outdated collective belief systems.

To break free of the traditional life and instead follow your heart and create and live your best life, takes pure courage. We are now walking a path that very few people understand or appreciate. While family and friends may support you generally as you embark on your Quest for the Ultimate Lifestyle, unless they are walking the same path as you, then they simply will not understand what you are attempting to achieve because for them, there really is only one way of living and that is all they know. Even if you explain the concept of the Ultimate Lifestyle philosophy to them, unless they experience it directly for themselves, then just will not understand or appreciate the scope of your endeavors and noble pursuits.

So with no solid support network in your social circle, when times get tough and suddenly that light at the end of the tunnel seems to have disappeared somewhere, when your strength and fortitude are being tested, then these are the times that you just need to have faith. Have faith that your dreams really are a reality just waiting for you to create. Faith that YOU have the ability, through your desire, determination and dedication, to make your dreams a reality. Keep having faith and never, ever give up. Though you may be feeling demotivated, promise yourself that you will never lose sight of your goals and dreams. Reflect on the tremendous challenges you are experiencing just from the fact alone that you are not conforming to societies ideal of standard living. You are not superman / superwoman, you are a human being who breaths and dreams and has needs just like every other human being on this earth. What separates you from the others though, is that you not only wish to live a better life, but you BELIEVE that a better life is possible and have a dream and the courage to chase it. Feeling fear, self doubt and being influenced by the comments and wishes of your loved ones is what makes you human. Just remember that and keep hold of your faith and dreams.

Your mind is a powerful tool and during these testing times your mind is just being weak and through your own insecurities is attempting to subotage your dreams. During these times when you question yourself and abilities, honor yourself. Take time out and truly relax for a few hours, a few days, or even a few weeks. Tune in and trust your heart, because your heart is never weak and will always lead you to where you need to be. You need to have fortitude, courage, determination, you need to have faith in your dreams and your infinite, incredible abilities.

It takes courage to follow your heart and create your best life, and it takes even more courage and faith to overcome obstacles and get through tough times. People admire seeing heroism and courage and you will be an inspiration for others, and who knows, you just may inspire someone so much they give you a new opportunity or point your life in a totally new direction.

Believe in yourself, believe in the magic which is life, trust your heart and never give up.
