While the notion of living out our days at the beach sounds like a dream, the reality is we are busy, hardworking people just trying to tackle life’s daily challenges and find the inspiration to really create the life we want.

We are all guilty of it. The minute we see or hear an incoming text or notification, we feel the need to immediately read it and see who it is.
