If I could change one thing in the world, what would it be? Why is this important to me? How will this help the world? What impact would it have on me?
If I could change one thing in the world, I would give access to free health care. Healthcare includes medical, dentist, mental health for preventative services, and emergency services.
This is important to me because the need for health care with children is essential and is one reason it would hold me back from just quitting to focus on that which would benefit the children and me now and in the future. If this was not a concern and all of my investments were doing well, I might say yes, I will leave the 9 to 5 job. And focus on one or two things that will bring me financial freedom and give me the time I want to spend with my children. If I were to leave my job, I would need to have a solid plan and have each minute of the working day accounted for working the aspects of the business that I need to. It would take more than the commitment and consistency I have given to my Book and blog writing. It would require me to get comfortable doing the things that make me feel uncomfortable. It would mean to market myself. Which requires me to answer the question, “who am I.” I question that would bring me to tears. I no longer cry because I have some idea but still can’t speak but a few lines about who i am. I’m still in the discovery mood. I feel guilty that I’m 40 and don’t have, for the lack of better words, my “shit” together.
If health care was free, I believe that the world and some of today’s challenges would be different. If everyone was afforded the same, it would place people on a more even playing field. Saving the lives of so many young people, extending the life of our seasoned community. Life as a whole would be prolonged, giving more time for the things that matter—the memories, victories, focus, strength.
As stated before, the impact that free health care would have for me would be my ability to walk away from that which I am a slave to that is bringing no real value to the legacy that I want to leave behind. I don’t want to pass, and my children say she was a good mom, but she didn’t accomplish much. I want to be in a place where I’m honestly able to focus on my grandchildren when the time comes. I hope that I won’t still be figuring things out. To reach that goal, I have to take risks somewhere. Having a piece of the puzzle that I need to provide for my children taken care of would make the road to personal accomplishments easier to achieve.
