To Be Honest, I Just Wanted To PUNCH Him Right In The Mouth!

What? ME? Punch someone in the mouth? I’m just not that sort of guy. I’m a lover, not a fighter. Besides, I’m a bit long in the tooth to go rolling around in the gutter ;-)

I wouldn’t really have punched him in the mouth of course. Besides, he was way bigger than me ;-) It was just that he looked so smug.

Or was it that he really just looked happy? Well, yes, he looked extremely happy.

The bastard!

I had just finished a long, 12 hour day at work, was knackered and still had a 2 hour drive up the motorway to get home.

It was winter and it was early evening dark. I overtook this truck and as I glanced over, the truck driver was singing his head off, tapping his hand on the steering wheel and he had a huge grin on his face.

He looked happy as a pig in poop.

The bastard!

I was flying a desk in corporate life, working long hours and in a high pressure position.

What I was really, when I looked over at that truck driver, was envious.

I daydreamed what it would be like to just turn up at work, no pressure, just get in your truck and drive it to wherever, then turn round and go home. Bliss!

Trouble is, truck drivers don’t earn a lot really, do they?

But he was happy that guy. He loved what he was doing for a living. You could see it.

He was happy as a pig in muck and I was exhausted, stressed and miserable.

Something had to give.

As a result of this experience I found a way out. So far out, that instead of ‘flying a desk’, I now live on a tiny tropical island.

And I’m happy. Truly happy.

So really I should have kissed him (well hugged him maybe).

Because, as a result of this experience, I also created my DYAL program that has helped other people who were previously ‘flying a desk’ to leave that behind and move to a calmer, less stressed and more peaceful way of life, with more time to actually enjoy their life.

Basically I’m enabling ordinary, every day people to finally find their own version of a fulfilling life. A life where they can finally be true to themselves.

And that makes me happy too.

There is nothing more exciting (and liberating) than to be able to go from a mundane, ‘every day the same’ kind of soul sucking lifestyle, to instead being able to live a life that makes you feel ‘leap out of bed’ truly happy and fulfilled.

So if you’d like to turn your ‘could have been’ life into your ‘soon will be’ life, perhaps you need to DYAL (Discover YOUR Alternative Lifestyle!) before it’s too late!
