The Remarkable Life

and manifesting!

I have been working through Debbie Millman’s Remarkable Life Deck and it’s been difficult but great.

It’s been difficult because it’s actually sort of hard to picture what you want your life to be like in 10 years. As a person who knows exactly what I want most of the time, I was taken aback by the fact that there were questions in the deck that even I found hard to answer. The “where are you living in 10 years” was one of them. I want to be living somewhere interesting, but what earth-location does that mean? I actually do not know. There are so many factors to consider now that it’s really hard to say. Did I think ten years ago that I’d still be living in New York? Nope. Do I think I’ll be living in Brooklyn ten years from now? Maybe?

It’s been great because the exercises forces a larger examination of my life and trajectory. Every day we are just lost in the grind and day in and day out we lose more and more touch with our larger purpose and our true intentions. If the unexamined life is not worth living (in the vein of Socrates) then this is for sure a way to make sure that my life is being examined. And that in the examination of it, I can manifest and send out intentions for where I want my life to go.

The work of building a remarkable life continues.
