7 Steps I Took to Start Creating My Dream Life
Posted by

For years, I felt stuck—working hard, feeling exhausted, and wondering, Is this really it? I wanted more freedom, more flexibility, and, honestly, more joy. But I kept waiting. Waiting for the right time, the right knowledge, the perfect moment.
Here’s the truth: that moment never comes.
If you’ve been waiting for a sign, this is it. You don’t need permission. You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need to start.
1. Shift Your Mindset: You Are the Creator of Your Life
Your dream life isn’t reserved for “lucky” people. The only difference between those who have it and those who don’t? They decided to go after it. No one handed them success. They built it.
I used to believe that financial freedom, travel, and flexible income were for other people. Until I realized the only thing separating me from them was action. They started before they felt ready. They figured it out along the way. And that’s exactly what you have to do.
2. Take Small, Aligned Steps
Feeling overwhelmed by everything you need to do? Take a breath. You don’t have to do it all at once.
Instead, ask yourself: What is ONE thing I can do today to move closer to my dream?
Maybe it’s:
✅ Researching digital product ideas
✅ Setting up a Pinterest or Instagram account
✅ Writing the first page of your eBook
Action creates momentum, and momentum creates growth. Start small, but start.
3. Make Time Instead of Finding It
“I don’t have time” is the biggest excuse—and I say that with love because I’ve been there too. But let’s get real:
📱 How much time do you spend scrolling social media?
📺 How many Netflix episodes did you watch last week?
If you audit your day, you’ll find hidden time. The key is to make time by scheduling it like a non-negotiable meeting. Even 30 minutes a day adds up.
4. Stay Inspired Daily
This changed EVERYTHING for me.
Every day, I fill my mind with things that inspire me and keep me in an abundance mindset.
🎧 Podcasts & audiobooks from successful people
📖 A chapter of a money mindset book
🎶 Singing and dancing to high-vibe music
Mindset isn’t a chore. It should be fun. The more joy you bring into your daily life, the more you’ll attract success.
5. Rewire Your Mindset: Everything is Working Out for You
Your thoughts shape your reality. So flip the script:
🚦 Stuck in traffic? → Wow, I’m here at the perfect time, missing an accident!
⏰ Woke up before your alarm? → Wow, I’m so in tune with my body’s rhythm!
🥗 Co-worker ate your lunch? → Omg, I get to treat myself to something new today!
Your life is always working for you. You just have to start seeing it that way.
6. Trust the Process and Keep Going
Most people quit when it gets hard. But the ones who succeed? They keep showing up.
They take action, even when they don’t feel like it. They trust that every small step is leading to something bigger.
You’re going to have doubts. You’re going to wonder if it’s working. That’s normal. The only thing you can’t do is quit.
7. You Don’t Need to Have It All Figured Out
No one starts with a perfect plan. I sure didn’t. I pivoted, learned new skills, and adjusted along the way.
So if you’re waiting for everything to “align” before you start—stop waiting. You create alignment by taking action.
Your dream life isn’t waiting for you. It’s ready for you to step into it.
So start today. One step, one decision, one moment at a time.
💫 You’ve got this.
