Experiencing Life The Way You Want To: My Early Onset Midlife Crisis

Experiencing life the way you want to is about being intentional with your time and giving yourself permission to do the things that matter most to you. It's about making choices that align with your vision, values, and priorities and not letting external factors or other people’s opinions and expectations dictate how you live your life. When we're conscious and intentional with our time, we're more likely to make choices that lead to a fulfilling and meaningful life. So, give yourself the permission to experience life the way you want to, get clear on what you want out of life, let go of the inner conflict, expectations, and judgment, and align with your vision to maximize your outcome and achieve what you desire in life. 

In this episode, your host, Paul Lyngso, shares tips and strategies from his coaching experience and book reading metaphor story on transformation, intentional living, and time consciousness to help you overcome inner conflict, get clear on your vision, invest your time currency wisely and align your behavior with your vision.
