RE: If you can dream it, you can Steemit: Stop the excuses and own life like a boss.

Damn, this is beautiful. You made me cry! "Next time you find yourself enviously looking at someones life wishing you could do that – stop the excuses and instead find one thing you can do right now that puts you one step closer. Then when you wake up tomorrow - do one more thing and so on. You are the captain of your soul." You are absolutely right. Wow, what a story.
I left everything too. I left it all behind several times. Sometimes, it takes many starts and stops and more starts again. I left the 9-5 five months ago for good and have found new health, creativity and love for life! You're an example the world needs to see. It can be done. Thanks

It makes me proud and happy to see that more and new people find piece and freedom in their life. You both are a good example. Please continue to be awesome. The world needs more of examples like you :)!

Aww thanks @stellabelle for taking the time to read my post. I watched your little video the other day about the community you live in. What a unique place! I live in a village with 274 people with one general store where they know you by name. This is the first place I have ever lived in where I am really starting to appreciate the value of community. I like how you said you left the 9-5 for good. See that is resolve! I think once you decide to never go back you force yourself to find alternatives.

communities are the best. Living in closeness with people is a rare experience, but i think it's going to make a comeback.
