How to Live Life on Your Terms

MAIC Loren Ridinger

Have you ever had the nagging feeling that someone in your circle – be it a family member, friend, colleague – is trying to get you to live your life under his or her terms? Like they have an idea of how they’d like you to live and as a result he or she pushes and agenda that just doesn’t feel quite right to you? This is something I talk about a lot at conventions because most people forget their lives are their own to live on their terms.  You get to choose how you want to spend your time.

No matter what, there’s something very important to always keep in mind – living life on your own terms is absolutely essential. From the way you manage your career to the way to raise your children – no one should tell you how to live, but rather it should always come from within. When it comes down to it, you are the one who has to live with your decisions and, at the end of the day – that is what matters most. Not sure how to navigate those waters? Here’s a look at how to live life on your terms for today and in the future.

How to Live Life on Your Terms

Pursuing your business dreams. It’s easy to have someone talk you out of pursuing your dreams, especially when that person feels jealous or envious of your passions. But, following your dreams and pursuing the things you’re passionate for is what life is all about. Who cares if you make a go at it and it doesn’t work out? You’ll never know until you try – and not knowing is probably not something you want to live with. No matter what your business dreams look like, it’s up to you to make them take shape – and that means going with your gut no matter what anyone else has to say.

Drown out the negative influences. Unfortunately there are always going to be negative people out there – it’s simply the way of the world. Digging deep within yourself to drown out the negativity is important when it comes to standing tall and going after everything you’re dreaming of. No one but you has the power to turn your dreams into reality and that means surrounding yourself with positive and encouraging vibes. If you find yourself having to deal with a constant flood of negativity from family or friends – ignore it! Move on and spend your time with the people who support you and love you most.

Surround yourself with honest and trustworthy people. When you start to get that taste of success, it’s amazing how many people suddenly want to be part of your circle – and it’s tough not to let them all in. But it’s so important to remember who your true friends are – the ones who stick by you no matter what you have or who you are. You’re inner circle should be filled with the people who love you for you – and never stop supporting you even when times are tough. You know down deep who those people are and who is merely a fleeting friendship – keep your favorite people close to your heart no matter what type of success you’re experiencing.

At the end of the day, living a life that’s true to you is where your efforts and energy should be channeled. It’s up to you to shape those goals, build that circle of friends and create an environment that’s positive and supportive of every step you’ll take in life.

How do you make sure you’re building a life based on authenticity and truth?
