I have a great friend who lives off grid in the Oregon mountains and having recently taken an unscheduled trip with my sister and another friend to visit his home well hidden and off the beaten path. I realised how inspirational it was to be able to sequester away for a few days from the bustle and demands of modern living and queit my mind enough to realise what I already love about my life and what area is due for a little re-evaluation. Our daily activites consisted of fishing in his creek for our morning sustenance, hiking the pristine mountains, jumping in the crystal clear (and very cold) water for our bath, long conversations over wine and cheese then sweating it all out in his sauna which he built right into the mountain rock, all the while wondering to myself.. Why isn't everyone living this life? The joy, The peace, the Spontaneity and not once did I wonder if I was going to get fired when I went back.
Well here's what I have concluded needs a little tweaking in my life.
I have been living for my own joy for a very long time and I have realised over the years that my joy is even greater when all those around me are living their lives in joy as well.
It is now my intent to share with others everything I know in how to live their lives in absolute joy and financial freedom. http://www.creativesourcenow.com/

Wealthandhappiness
Hi Everyone, Welcome to my blogpost.
I have known that I am the Creator of my reality long before the "Secret" "What the bleep" and "Down the rabbit hole" were ever produced. and boy was it ever time for the message to be shared.
Finally people were starting to relate to my lingo. in the past, Once people started to get to know me, The most common question I was asked is "How do you do it"?
My Reply: I created it!
Their reply: What?
Let me explain; All my life I have been profoundly intrigued by Foreign Travel, Cultures and just seeing as much of this world as I possibly could.
To date I have traveled 51 coutries, 6 continents and 49 U.S. States. and not just passing through.
I have created dear friendships in nearly every country I have visited and have a network spanning the entire globe.
Why? It's what I think about. How? it's what I think about... and then my heart starts to beat fast and this emotion begins to well up and that's it! it's only a matter of time before my bags are packed and I am suffering through the cattle call of airport security (not my favorite part) and voil'a I'm in a new coutry. This is what I love about my life.
And you know the craziest thing? It just comes to me.
Once I missed a flight coming home from Florida and ended up having to take the train to Miami Intl. and while I was waiting for the train I had turned to look behind me to see a lovely man smiling at me. I couldn't resist (I'm also a smiler) and I returned the favor. we had a quick chat, he told me he was from Israel and on a world tour before he goes to work for his family full time. I told him he must be my guest then, we exchanged emails and he was in my home one week later. This man is now my dearest friend and we visit each other's family almost every year now. Either I go to Israel or he comes to the U.S.
I have tons of stories like this one. If you like, I'll tell you more. they are magic!!!
So! Are you thinking now. Well, she just has a bunch of disposible income, or gets it from family, or married and divorced with benefits, or has the perfect job that pays her well and gives her lots of freedom. Well, thats what I would likely think I guess.
but no! not that.
I actually have worked in between all my travels, and sometimes even came back to the same job and I have traveled for my work but it doesn't at all count for all the travels I have done and all the money I have spent in doing so.
I do have an education in Alternative Medicine and Foreign language but for the past few years I have been working as a decorative artisit (I did study in Italy which is exotic) but that has been a life of living from job to job and I've resented that part of my life.
Now I am re-creating that part of my life so that I am able to live more of what I am passionate about and what brings me happiness.
p.s. You know the parable that says "Jump and the net will appear"?? or "when one door closes another one opens"??
well... I've jumped! and I closed the door to my last career (it's not locked.. just closed, since I do have fun with it.)
Why don't you check out how I've been to do that?
