Many of us are in constant "reactive" mode rather than in proactive or visionary mode. For example, at your current job, did you just "fall in" to it? or did you actively create it?

In your current house or apartment, was it just available, or did you identify what you wanted and then find it?

In your current relationship, is it just there, or is it something that you co-actively create and maintain over time?

When we sit down, assess, take a deep, deep breath, and really think about what it is we want to create with our lives, we start to understand our priorities and what it is that we want to make manifest with the gift of our lives.
