I just want to give a big shout out to the readers who responded about my recent post, Breaking Free From the Routine and Into Your Best Life and shared inspiring insight to their experiences in discovering their passions. I received lots of emails sharing creative ways in dealing with recent job loss, realizing it as an opportunity to create major changes centered around utilizing their passions and talents. It's incredibly encouraging to hear so many turning loss into an opportunity to living out your best life! Several readers also said they found it as a sort of metamorphosis and a fresh opportunity to begin a new career where they felt more fulfulled. Albeit the financial struggle, they said they lost jobs that were primarily providing a paycheck that was just getting them by and provided very little personal satisfaction in the first place. Readers also said the loss was a sort of hidden wake-up call to start looking at their lifelong talents and passions they’ve suppressed for several years, and were far too busy to even think about before that point. I'll be the first to admit that it's not always easy to match our passions with our paychecks; however I do believe that sometimes a change in lifestyle and simplifying our lives can make the journey a little easier so we can focus on goals fueled by desire rather than filling our lives with just more stuff. I think it’s one of the most vital and incredible accomplishments that each of us can make in our lifetime: The awakening of our souls to our unique talents and apply them to a passionate and fulfilling career that allows us to live our best life! Thanks everyone! My heart is with you in fulfilling your every dream!

Oh my goodness, I'm going in search of that post. I'm going through the same kind of change myself. Horrible really.
Thanks,
Jeanette
Hi Jeanette, yes I had lots of personal email responses about it, so I just had to share the great feedback that I received that so many are in the same boat. Good luck to you as well!
Yes, the state of the economy is providing a silver lining for us to become more spiritually aware of the unique opportunities for incredible growth in our lives and in the world.
Thanks for your awesome comments Nate! :)
I'm going to go back and read the comments. Maybe I'll learn something:)

I know we feel strongly about the funny side of life on our blog. But, my favorite thing in life is sitting with someone and really talking about the state of their heart. That is what a lot of this comes down to. We lose our souls to the pace and demands of this life. Love this post. Thanks. Holly at LLL
Thanks for following my blog! I got made redundant from a magazine and started a blog, I'm loving discovering all the talented writers on the net!
I was made redundant too - that's when I decided to indulge my love and passion for writing and started a blog. I am much poorer but a lot happier!
