Welcome to Joy of Life Path
In the journey of my personal development, I had the blessing to meet some very inspiring and empowering people. Through this process, I navigated from an initially limited perspective about “Who am I?” to the realisation that there are, in fact, infinite possibilities to be. Once you dare to face the mirror and start realising that who you think you are is actually an image in relation to the Other, it is shocking for sure, but at the same time this - therefore conscious discovery - allows you to understand that you have a choice. You can choose if you want to continue your life as you have been living it so far, or make some changes in order to walk towards the direction of your truth, of your desire, of what could make you happier, of the path towards a more enjoyable life. To do so, there is not just one way but plenty, there are many diverse possibilities of creation, so every human being can choose and at the same time take the responsibility of this choice into his/her own hands and navigate in life. In order to work towards this direction of personal growth, some questions may arise, like:
How do I want to live my life?
What brings joy into my life?
Which is my Joy of Life Path?
