It was my doTERRA leader that first told me to make a joy list. She said to write down a list of 100 things that bring me joy. Some should cost money and some should be free. At first, I thought of all the things most people mention, spending time with family, snuggling with my pets, and having dinner with friends. But, over the next week, I was able to think of more and more things. I wanted to have a successful business and I wanted to work from home full time. I loved helping people. It would be so fun to travel to other countries, like Greece and Italy. My dream home is a white farmhouse with a wraparound porch on a few acres of land. After a while, I had a list close to 100 things!
Now, I know what to plan for. I know what to get excited about. I can take a small step towards doing the things on that list every day. I don’t have that dream house or the trips to Greece and Italy, but I figured out a way to work from home and start earning the money for those other things on my list.
If you ask me today what I love, I will have an answer for you.
