Spend five minutes scrolling social media and you can identify five places you’d love to live. Especially if you’re unhappy with where you’re at. Your ideal of somewhere else is flawless. But you’ve memorized every imperfection of your current reality. It’s tempting to daydream about how much better your life would be if you lived somewhere else, worked somewhere else, were married to someone else. Is that true though? Even if you found something better, wouldn’t you just still be you in a different location or situation? How do you become the best version of you regardless of where you are? What if the solution isn’t uprooting, but digging deeper right where you’re at?
