“Isn’t it time you packed up the 4×4 and headed off to your favourite destination…”

So I re-posted this meme not long ago on my facebook page HERE and I was very surprised by the response that it had. People were liking it and sharing it, it really connected with people and I know why. For the simple reason that it is very true!!!!

We all get caught up in our lives and find ourselves in the ‘rat race’ where everyday seems the same. We wake up get ready, get the kids ready, send them off to school. Get ourselves to work, only to listen to people complain about how bad their life is and how much they dislike work. We then finish work, to pick up the kids, get home to cook dinner and finally sit down to enjoy each others company. Only to go to bed a few hours later. We get a mediocre sleep, just to get up and do it all again. Then we do this for 5-6 days per week, just to get 1-2 days off…..

Isn’t it time that you turned this around in your life? Instead of working 5-6 days per week, what if you had 5-6 days off per week and only had to work 1-2 days??? Wouldn’t you love to jump in the 4×4 and take off for a more than 2 days???
Well everyone can do it, but you have to make that commitment, you have to say to yourself, that’s it, I have had enough. But what about the kids? What about the house? What about the car? You can sit here and make a thousand excuses on why not to do it, while somebody is out there doing it. Fear is the only thing holding you back from what you want to do!

Think about this for a moment, if you were to work Monday to Friday. How many days are you working for yourself? Five you might say? Four? If you really think about it, you only start working for yourself at about 12pm Friday. For the rest of the week you are working for:
a) Taxman
b) Bank (Mortgage or loans)
c) Employer
d) The Queen (Land rates)
e) Foxtel or Netflix
f) Moblile phone companies
etc etc etc

I think you get the point, all of these bills are paid before you can even put you hand into your pocket to reward yourself for your hard work.

So think about it, who are you really working for???
