Be the Chef in the Recipe of Your Own Life

I wanted to send out a little inspiration and talk about life essentials and how it relates to food. You’re probably thinking, how the heck do life essentials relate to food? Well, stay with me here.. If you think about it, we’re all our own chefs in our own way. Now think about your favorite recipe and think about the essential ingredients that have to go into that recipe for that specific meal to turn out how you expect it to turn out. For instance, if you’re making spaghetti, it would be the marinara, pasta, meat sauce, etc.; and I want you to relate that to your life. Say your life is a recipe and you are the chef. So what essential things to you need to have in your life to make your life work? It could be things like healthy eating, exercise, 7 hours of sleep or more, family time, meditation, prayer, journaling, vacation, being around positive people, sports, etc. Now think about whatever it is. There a million different recipes for a million different people in the world. Each individual has their own specific, unique recipe. For instance, my recipe is, of course, exercise, good nutrition, being around positive people, family and friends, prayer, and also vacation.. I love getting away. But most importantly, the thing I really love is helping people. I feel like if I’m not helping someone then my life is off canter. So think about that with your life. We’re all chefs in some sort of way. And think about what you want your recipe of life to look like. Think about the essential ingredients and go from there. Have a blessed day.
