The most impactful lesson I have learned living with an indigenous family in Peru

If I can share a single tip with you how I have been able to follow my dreams in Peru for 6 years living with an indigenous family, it is NEVER GIVE UP. I strongly believe every person has a purpose and higher meaning to their life. Each on of us is given a very specific set of life experiences that paints our own personal flavor. Creation is breathing Life through us and guiding us to recognize and fulfill our greatest service. There has been so many times through the past 6 years I have questioned my dream, wondered if our work will succeed, doubted my own abilities, felt so confused. I am so grateful that somewhere down the line I have chosen to fully commit to my dreams despite all challenges, surround myself by friends and family who root me on, found techniques to come back to my center, and committed fully to my dearest relations— even in the most challenging moments. Here are 4 tools I have found most helpful to never give up on my dreams: 1.) Become very clear with your VISION. What is your ideal scenario for the world? For your life? Who is playing in it? What are you doing? How are you doing it? I looked at models of other people’s and organization’s visions whom I admire. From this I began working with my own. Allowed it to shift and mold until I really feel this vision is what guides my life principles and actions.

Surround yourself with beneficial community- people in your life who have your best interest at heart. When things are rough, I prefer having friends around who tell me my dream is still worth aiming for. They help me to break it down into small steps. They are honest enough to let me know what specific steps I am taking that maybe aren’t as effective, and inspiring enough to offer new approaches and suggestions. My community is my guiding post, they help me remember who I am and what I stand for. I return this strength to them, and am there in the challenging and the bright. As a true friend, I don't want you to come to me to gossip, come to me if you want a genuine reflection towards personal growth. 3.) Find your center point. Is it prayer & ceremony? Is it meditation or yoga? Is it running? Is it Nature? Is it sports? What is the thing that brings you back to balance, clears your mind, and gives you a fresh perspective every time? DO THIS & DO IT OFTEN! 4.) Don’t give up on your relationships. If you and your life partner, or work partner, or friend have mutually decided you are committed to a relationship- don’t see every rock in the road as a question of whether or not to stay involved. Each challenge presents a unique opportunity for growth. This is the moment to integrate the practices, come to your center, and work things out. Life isn’t easy. HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS ARE NOT EASY. When you decide to stay and work things through with creative solutions, express your needs, and hear the needs of others- rather than jumping ship - you are growing immensely & obtaining qualities for collaboration and success of your dreams. Completing dreams are a lot more rewarding when they are shared! This does not mean stay in a toxic relationship. It means really fine tune- is this relationship beneficial? Are we both committed? If they answer is yes…. work through it! I hope these tools can be as beneficial to you as they have been to me. I am so grateful for all the friends and family who have kept me encouraged and rooted me on. Having a vision, surrounding myself with beneficial community, coming back to my center (through prayer/ceremony in my case), and staying committed to my relationships have become the pillars of inspiration that get me out of bed every day, and motivate me to discover new pathways to achieve my dreams (and inspire others to do the same) I pray you are staying true to your dreams! The journey is well worth it.
