Dear unlearner,
In life, most of us are sleepwalking.
Wake up.
We follow the crowd. We chase trends. We live on autopilot.
But here's the hard truth:
You've got one shot at this life. One.
Think about it.
How many of your daily choices are truly yours?
How much of your path did you consciously choose?
Chances are you're following others' footsteps more than you realize. It's comfortable. It's safe.
But is it really living?
Big dreams don't happen by accident. They require intention, courage, and the willingness to break away from the masses.
You can't expect to be 1% and act like the 99%.
Yet so many of us trade those dreams for the comfort of distraction.
I'm not saying it's easy.
Scrolling endlessly is easier than doing. Binge watching mindlessly is easier than growing. Letting years slip away instead of chasing your dream is easier. We chase after distraction instead of things that truly matter.
Because we all have the "blaming life for failure"card in the back of our pocket.
Don't be that person full of regret, wishing you'd had the courage to actually live.
Don't let that be your story. Your life is too valuable to waste on autopilot. Choose your path. Pursue your passions. Make decisions that align with your deepest values, not someone else's expectations.
It's not easy. Breaking free from the crowd never is. But the alternative is a life of quiet desperation and unfulfilled potential. That is far more painful.
You have one life.
One chance.
Don't waste it on distractions.
Dare to dream big, and have the courage to chase those dreams. Your future self will thank you.
Until tomorrow,
Cammi

And it’s never too late to be inspired enough to change and grow. I’m teaching Kundalini yoga in my 70th year on this plane and feeling better than ever. Am I wealthy? In my opinion I’m rich beyond material wealth
I recently asked some friends, what would take a bird out of his open and comfortable cage? why explore the unknown? Maybe it's realizing that you dont want to avoid anymore the big hole in the cage, and want to see what is really out there.
