I know it may be difficult to think of Spring at the moment. Especially if you're in the middle of a nasty snow storm. But it's coming...really.
Even if you're in the middle of winter, what can you do to improve your life? Do you need to just stop and be grateful for what you have? Is your heart telling you that it's time for a change? Follow your bliss, find more time for things that you're enthusiastic about. Find some people to share your interests.
I mentioned that I just moved to the Washington DC area in December. I knew no one. I realized I needed to find some people I could share my interests with. I found
www.meetup.com. There are over 350 different groups within a 25 mile radius of our house - groups on meditation, food, wine, going clubbing, business, art...just about everything you can imagine, and some I never could have thought of. If you're looking for new friends, interesting things to do or business networking, check out MeetUp. You can even start up your own group for only about $15 a month.
Just for fun, check out the meetup my husband and I have scheduled for tomorrow. I find this amazing, we have some really interesting people coming to our
Open House/Jewelry Show. A couple people I've met at other groups, others are complete strangers who share our interests. Some people are coming to talk about jewelry making and art, some to shop, and others are coming for some munchies, wine and friendship. Should be an awesome day.
My point is, don't sit around and bemoan the fact that "there aren't any like minded people". There are, you just need to reach out and find them, make that connection today.
I hope I've inspired you.
