It's easy to sleepwalk through life without ever really considering what we're here for.
But life presents us with continual opportunities to wake up - and to think about not just what we do with our lives, but who we become while living them. Ultimately it is the story that we believe about ourselves, our lives and the world around us that will shape us - for better or for worse. So where do we find a good story - a convincing narrative that makes sense of it all?
“Most of the time, most of us find ourselves immersed in the mundane, preoccupied with getting by, anxious about deadlines; there are bills to pay, emails to write, phone calls to make and trains to catch. We’re racing through life but falling asleep on the inside. However, every now and then - perhaps over a meal or a drink with a friend of many years; or disturbed by a long, sleepless night; or watching the sunset over the sea; or faced with a personal difficulty or family tragedy; or gazing up at the moon and countless stars on a clear summer’s night - we momentarily glimpse something bigger, something bolder and more fulfilling.”
