Yesterday, someone congratulated me on my move to the Dominican Republic, but something else they said really stuck with me: “When you say you’re going to do something, you actually go and do it.”
It got me thinking. I’ve always dreamed of living by the ocean in the sunshine, and I made it happen. I said I’d move to Uruguay, visit Brazil, run a hostel in Mexico, build my own brand, create a website, and publish a book. And I did. Six years ago, I dreamed of living in the Dominican Republic, a country I’d never even visited. And here I am.
But it’s not just about travel or achievements. I decided to stop drinking, so I stopped. I decided to quit smoking, and I did that too.
Have I failed at things? Absolutely. Have I made mistakes? Plenty. And there are still dreams I’m working towards.
But yesterday reminded me of something important. I’ve learned to trust myself because I’ve repeatedly turned my words into actions.
And that’s what DREAM BIG & STOP BITCHING means to me. Not that life is easy, or that everyone faces the same challenges, but that dreaming alone won’t change your circumstances. At some point, you have to take that first step, face the uncertainty, and give yourself a chance.
Stop waiting for the perfect moment. Start putting things in motion.
