Lara from The Ultimate Lifestyle Project.

“Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it.  Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.” – Goethe

Meet Lara.

I wrote this post last week, right after Lara and I had finished talking through our computers on Skype.  Madrid to Austin!  Lara offers Free Life Coaching thru her website, The Ultimate Lifestyle Project.  I met Lara thru a group on Couchsurfing, about writers with blogs.  She contributed to the video about The Mission of Create Our World.

Lara is a Kiwi (New Zealander) whom has traveled the world on and off since 2003.  She currently lives in Spain but is looking to hibernate somewhere warm for the winter time.  Her wardrobe is not equipped for the cold!

Lara is determined to escape the Rat Race and to help you do so as well.  Lara is on a mission to live The Ultimate Lifestyle.  She recently quit her job and is pursuing her dreams.  

 ”Dedicating my entire life to creating my concept of the Ultimate Lifestyle, my very best life :

A truly international lifestyle, full of magical journeys, adventure, fun, excitement, every day in pursuit of grand dreams, and always surrounded by amazing people I love and adore; and then help everyone else to do the same, create their own very best life, their Ultimate Lifestyle.”

My Life Coaching Session.

I connected with Lara, looking forward to speaking with someone whom has experience with the “Blogosphere,” and similar philosophies on living our lives to the fullest.  

We spoke for about 25 minutes, swapping some travel stories, but mostly talking about my project.  I am leaving the talk feeling more motivated and purposeful.  

3 Insights from my talk with Lara:

1.  I need BE time.  I am going to start meditating (or at least sitting quietly without distractions) 30 minutes a day.

I have been casually interested in meditation and yoga for a long time and dabbling a bit here and there in both.  But since traveling, I have really felt drawn to quietness and space.  I am surrounded by people a lot, or am utilizing the internet to share my stories or connect with others.  It gets overwhelming at times!!!

“Meditation changed my life.”  Lara meditates regularly and encourages it.  However, she warns me “not to look for anything through meditation.”  I want to meditate to simply feel the joy of being.

2.  Figure out what my Ultimate Lifestyle is.  What do I need to do in my Life so I can die a supremely happy dude?

This traveling adventure is in some ways an experiment.  I am asking myself the question everday, How do I want to live my life?  What will make me fulfilled?  What do I need to be able to die, happily, restfully, and contentedly, knowing I have lived my life to the absolute fullest?  To not hold anything back!  

Lara would call it living your Ultimate Lifestyle.  I have heard it described as your Deepest Purpose or the Life of Your Dreams! Whatever you call it, I still am not sure what my Ultimate Lifestyle is.  Do I want to travel for years on end, maybe never stopping, or would I be more fulfilled settling down somewhere?  Do I want to be rich and famous or would I be happier with just enough money? Married or single? Big cities or rolling countryside?  Mustache or beard?

I want to figure out, what is essential for me to live my  happy and fulfilled Ultimate Lifestyle.

3. Manifest Money Early… like NOW.

Money is energy.  If you don’t have it, you very likely will die.  For me having money, means that I can live and travel and eat and socialize and adventure and concentrate all my mental and intuitional powers on living the Life of My Dreams.  Nothing will stop me from whatever opportunity comes my way.  But having a J.O.B. can drastically impede this. (Lara cringed when I mentioned the J.O.B. word) A job can deaden your energy, eat up your time, and mess with your mind, tricking you into thinking that you cannot live the Life of Your Dreams.

Plus, when my Ultimate Lifestyle does hit me in the face, when I realize my deepest purpose, I am probably going to need some dough to get it up and running.  

Look for money and attract money into my Life now.

***

What about you?  What is your Ultimate Lifestyle?  What is the Life of Your Dreams? What is your Deepest Purpose?  What would you need to do to look back on your Life and die with a contented, joyous smile on your face?  What can you do RIGHT NOW to start that?  Don’t Wait!

For inspiration, check Lara’s site.  She posts a lot of inspiration articles.  Or if you are interested in talking to a positive “coach” with some experience, contact Lara for Free Life Coaching.

Thanks Lara!!!

Good Luck to us all on our adventures to live our Ultimate Lifestyle!!!

Create Our World.
