Hi Brooke,
just watched your “Uncondition Desire” class, VERY helpful! You said several times how important it is to redirect the desire we have for food into something bigger, a long term goal. This hits home for me: It’s been so long that I’m trying to find a really compelling new big goal for me: In my late teens and twentys I wanted to travel the world and meet exciting people and learn languages. And I did all that by 27. The next big goal was becoming a successful entrepreneur – and I became one. Age 32 or so I was so successful with my own business that I was even a bit scared (what to do next?). But then I was offered a very cool opportunity to take it even to a higher level and teach my knowledge at a very reputated school. Now, age 52 I’m the head of this school, while still conducting this first business. And now? Other big goals were to have a beautiful relationship with a wonderful partner who can live with my accomplishments – I can hardly belief my luck, but last year we celebrated our 10th wedding anniverary. Now the goal to be finally at my natural weight. This seems to be a hard one. But since at scholars, I lost 25 pounds (40 or so still to go). I feel this is on its way and of course takes a bit of consciousness etc. But in a way it really feels like it’s already done (intermittant fastig finally did the trick – after so many years of fighting it seems so easy now! Thank you so much!!!) But professionally I would love to find a new project, some big desire I can direct myself toward. Do you have any insights on how to create a new big goal, when the “original” ones are already checked? Maybe a strange question, but one I really struggle with. Thanks for everything!
