What Exactly is Living YOUR Best Life?

I love me some Lil’ Duval and Uncle Snoop Dogg for making this song! I see this quote in everyone’s FaceBook, Twitter and Instagram post, so I guess that’s why I refuse to use it in any of mine…LOL Every time I see this in someone’s post I ask myself what does “living your best life” really mean? Are you really living your best life or are you fronting for the gram? Let me tell you what my definition of “living your best life means”.

DEFINING YOUR BEST LIFE

Have you ever just sat down and thought about the things that would make you happy? Is it traveling, continuing your education, helping others or finding a rewarding career? Often times we look at others living THEIR best life and try to compare ours to theirs. Well let me tell you something honey, their best life will never be yours. To start living YOUR best life, you have to define it first. Take a look at all the things that make you happy in life and capitalize from there. For example, I love to travel. I am in a bunch of travel groups on Facebook and Instagram, but bay-bee if I try to live my best life like some of those people I will end up living the homeless life…no for real. The perception of what their best life is can make you think that you are not living yours and that my friend, is a lie. We don’t know what these people do for a living or who they may be running from. For all we know they could be traveling so much because they hate going home to an empty house, or they are running some illegal drug ring…LOL Never let someone else define what YOUR best life should look like.

OWN YOUR BEST LIFE

If you are happy with where you are in life and what you have, never let anyone tell you that you are not living your best life. You have to OWN IT! You know how many people look at me and say “Girl you have it all. A husband, smart, beautiful kids and a good job.” I will admit that I am truly blessed, but those same people who say these things to me, drive way nicer cars, live is way bigger houses and make way more money than I do. I believe that I am living my best life in this moment, because let’s face it, life can always get better and unfortunately get worse in the blink of eye. My advice is that we need to look at all the positives in our life, no matter how small they may seem, because I can guarantee you that “if you breathing, you achieving.” – Snoop Dogg

LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE

I sing this song at least once a day! When someone tries to get on my nerves, I will start humming! My favorite part is “I ain’t going back and forth with you”. Think about it, why would you go back and forth with someone who is not living your life? Save that energy to focus on making your best life better. When you decide to live YOUR best life, NO ONE can take that away from you. If living your best life involves being able to pay all your bills and still have $50 left over, then that is YOUR best life. Once you define what YOUR best life is, take the steps to get there and live it! You have to create your own happiness and that my friends will enable you to LOVE your best life, OWN your best life and most importantly…

LIVE it…BLOUNT-ly
