We all have our core values the things that are really important to us like peace, financial security, and achievement, for instance. How you prioritise them can change though and you can often find that one suddenly becomes very important, especially if its not being met.

A good example of this was when I was on holiday with my family at an activity hotel in Devon. I suddenly realised when we went on a guided walk in the warm sunshine how much I had missed the freedom of being out in the open. I was reminded of this feeling again when as a complete novice I was encouraged round the golf course by the experts in the family. Of course, playing the game was important but being in the open space was exhilarating.

Much to my surprise I had that feeling again when we went to the Eden Project and joined the throngs of people through the biomes. Being amongst all that nature felt so freeing. Or maybe it was doing something totally unrelated to work where my interest was held to the point where I was totally absorbed.

A few days later, when wed returned home, I went to the gym but that didnt do it for me. Although I was pleased to get the exercise there was still plenty of time to think, but the 6 miles walk we did the next day was great! Yes, thoughts did come and go but the view was terrific and the weather was ideal. There it was again!

So, what does it all mean? Well, for me it felt like a reminder of what I needed to include in my life that gave me a feeling of freedom, be it a walk in the park, salsa dancing or joining the golf club.

And for you? Well, if your intuition keeps telling you something, dont just ignore it, see whats missing and look at how you can create that feeling. This is your opportunity to get really creative. Think of all the things youve done in the past that have given you the feeling you want and see if any appeal now, or maybe try something completely new. After all, any time is a good time for new beginnings.
