What I Know For Sure

I’ve always been the type of person to succumb to my friends’ and families’ wishes, even if it affected my health and well-being. I put them before myself and suffered significantly for it.

But at least I could rationalize it by seeing how happy it made them. Until it got to the point where I just couldn’t take it anymore.



So I decided to make a change and do what makes me happy. It got to a point in my life where I just had to, I was absolutely miserable. I did what I wanted to do for a very long time, I picked up and moved from Boston, Massachusetts to Brisbane, Australia and didn’t look back. It was the best decision of my life. I couldn’t be happier.

It took me a long time to make this leap, it didn’t happen overnight. And during the transition period, I put together a list of my core values and beliefs that helped me to remember what is really important and what I needed to make me truly happy. I thought I’d share them with you now to help in case you are also going through a difficult time in your life. I hope these help you as much as they’ve helped me.
