Sailing Towards Your True North

By Scott Shimberg


Sailing with our family over the holidays places our WHY into distinct focus, solidifying why our decision to discover opportunities that bring time freedom back in our way of life was the perfect one. Why finding the time to bring an experience into the lives of our children was the perfect one. And why taking our work (if you can call it that) with us wherever we go, from posting a blog post on our tablet from the cockpit of our sailboat, inter-connected to the online cloud, was the good choice. As we reflect on our lives at the end of this year, and as we anxiously await all of the fascinating and new avenues we will explore into the new year, we anticipate sharing what we have discovered as we grow our "sea-legs" in the new frontiers of the online world.

Choosing your true Why, your true North, takes a lot of self-examination. Knowing what is important to you figuring out what you want to accomplish in the time you have - and you really don't know how much time that really is - means starting to concentrate on what really matters to you. Is it spending time with your kids while they're at the age of discovery and wonder? Will it be exploring places which you were usually interested in, both across town or across the globe? Will it be helping the world one person at a time, or simply understanding the world, one person at a time?

Keep in mind that sailing your life's Why is a journey - it's your journey. It will be a trip truly worth sharing with others; you will be surprised at how interested others may be about your travels! Just do it and share it, write a blog, or reveal your memories with us. We would like to hear about it. Just think about yourself in a rocking chair on your front porch at 100 looking back at your Life. Imagine yourself acquiring no regrets on the road you've taken. Just think about how you'll just close your eyes and smile.

Until next time

Scott and Heidi
