Mid Income Crisis

Are you feeling sad lately? Unfulfilled and dissatisfied with life?

What is it that is causing this epidemic of discontent among middle age, medium income women? In a fast paced society of today along with a boat load of choices come more stresses. It seems that while the generations before us spent their lives trying to attain their dreams we have attained our dreams at a much earlier stage in the game. The problem is we have skipped the step of living the dream and jumped to expanding upon it.

How many of us have purchased and lived in not 1 home but 2 or more? And cars - How many new cars have you purchased in your lifetime. We are more fortunate and more overwhelmed than our parents ever where. Unlike previous generations that took a lifetime to attain their dreams we are attaining our dreams by leaps and bounds. The thing is no one ever told us what to do next. Being the greedy, fast paced society that we are - we forgot to stop at living the dream and enjoying our fortunate lives and went straight into expanding our dreams. We have the house. What about getting a bigger house or a summer house? Now that we have a car what about a second or third? We have turned into a generation of spoiled adults with way too many choices.

How can we fix this? Well, we simply have to stop. Stop expanding upon things that may not even satisfy us to begin with. We are at a new frontier. Before running in and developing it lets take a look around and set some rules for our new frontier. Take time to determine what makes us happy in our new place and accomplish it!

For most of us we are running at such a fast pace that we may not even notice how out of balance we really are. For those of us that for one reason or another (Divorce, Death of close family member, Health Issues) have had to slow down and get off the roller coaster called life - We discovered that this just cannot be it! We want more out of life. This realization or need to experience life comes in all forms. It can be as easy as planning a getaway with the girls. For others this realization comes in the form of a new career, move across country or spiritual awakening. Whatever the change it will take some stillness to realize it. So be still and let your inner voice guide you to your life of purpose and passion.
