Tip<\/b>\u00a01 \u2013 Never Settle for Anything Less than Your Ultimate Dreams<\/b><\/h3>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

My youth was a series of \u201chave to\u2019s\u201d and \u201cmust do\u2019s\u201d. <\/span><\/p>\n

I allowed my choices to be guided by others who told me what to do, what to aspire to, and honestly, who to be.<\/span><\/p>\n

Then I realized that my life had more meaning and I was the one responsible for giving it value. <\/span><\/p>\n

A purposeful life, one that\u2019s infused with dreams, goals, and achievements that are driven by your own dreams, is a much more meaningful life.<\/span><\/p>\n

For me, living the Mediterranean lifestyle is the most important principle by which I live. <\/span><\/p>\n

At its heart, this principle is about committing your whole heart and soul to your dreams. <\/span><\/p>\n

Achieving your goals on your own terms, trusting yourself, and surrounding yourself with like-minded people who will support you along the way. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As a young cook born and raised in Italy, I always dreamed of becoming the best, and at the time I felt that all it took was hard work to fulfill my dreams. <\/span><\/p>\n

What I realize now, at 55 years old, is that the most important thing in life is to never settle and to believe in yourself and your dreams, no matter how big or small they might be.<\/span><\/p>\n

At a certain point in my career, just like everyone, I found myself settling and I knew that wasn\u2019t what I wanted for my life. <\/span><\/p>\n

I consciously chose to make some changes. <\/span><\/p>\n

One of the biggest changes that I implemented was to focus on my mindset. <\/span><\/p>\n

I learned how to meditate, how to use affirmation, and how to continue to challenge myself by setting new goals throughout my life.<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Recipes” _builder_version=”4.10.8″ _module_preset=”default” link_option_url=”https:\/\/oliveyourlife.org\/blog\/recipes\/” link_option_url_new_window=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/oliveyourlife.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/5S0A3331.jpg” alt=”Living a mediterranean lifestyle” title_text=”Couple cooking together” url=”https:\/\/oliveyourlife.org\/blog\/recipes\/” url_new_window=”on” admin_label=”Recipes” _builder_version=”4.10.8″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.8″ _module_preset=”default” header_font_size=”40px” header_4_font_size=”40px” link_option_url=”https:\/\/oliveyourlife.org\/blog\/” link_option_url_new_window=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Tip 2- The Key to A Stress-Free Life is Simplicity<\/b><\/h4>\n

The second important thing I would tell my younger self is to keep it simple. <\/span><\/p>\n

When I was younger, I was constantly striving for the next thing and looking to innovate at every turn. <\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s not a bad thing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unless you do it to the exclusion of actually taking the time to enjoy your current accomplishments and what\u2019s right in front of you.<\/span><\/p>\n

In western civilization, most of us find ourselves, at one time or another, running through life, chasing something elusive that we think will make our lives better. <\/span><\/p>\n

From that frenetic-paced life, we fail to just stop and enjoy the simple things, the perfect moments that are happening right now.<\/span><\/p>\n

What\u2019s most important for me is to focus on the simplicity of the\u00a0ingredients when I cook. <\/span><\/p>\n

As a chef, I love to innovate and use intricate techniques and complicated ingredients, but there\u2019s a time and place for that. <\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s also a time and place for simple, healthy, nutritious, 3-ingredient recipes. <\/span><\/p>\n

I love using what\u2019s in season and enjoying the simplicity of the flavors inherent in just a few ingredients. <\/span><\/p>\n

A simple Tuscan salad called Panzanella, for example, based on the basic elements of Tuscan cuisine, which uses simply tomatoes, bread, and basil. <\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s fulfilling and delicious.<\/span><\/p>\n

Simplicity in life does not mean boring or less impactful. It means you take the time to truly enjoy where you are and what you\u2019re experiencing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Blog” _builder_version=”4.10.8″ _module_preset=”default” link_option_url=”https:\/\/oliveyourlife.org\/blog\/” link_option_url_new_window=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/oliveyourlife.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/5S0A3284.jpg” alt=”Living a mediterranean lifestyle” title_text=”Couple dancing kitchen” url=”https:\/\/oliveyourlife.org\/blog\/” url_new_window=”on” admin_label=”Blog” _builder_version=”4.10.8″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.10.8″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.8″ _module_preset=”default” header_6_font_size=”40px” custom_margin=”||-26px|||” link_option_url=”https:\/\/oliveyourlife.org\/blog\/” link_option_url_new_window=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Tip 3 \u2013 Infuse Every Day With Passion\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/h6>\n

The last tip I\u2019d give my younger self (and this is the most important) is to be passionate. <\/span><\/p>\n

Being born in Italy, passion is something that has always been a part of my DNA, but I never realized the importance of sharing it with others until now.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let passion infuse your day, from the time your day wakes up until you go to bed. <\/span><\/p>\n

Get excited about everything and allow that to become a part of you and a part of the way you go through your day. <\/span><\/p>\n

When you are very young, everything is new and exciting. <\/span><\/p>\n

You\u2019re discovering new things every day and it\u2019s easy to do everything with passion. <\/span><\/p>\n

As you grow older, it\u2019s too easy to let the things you do on a daily basis become boring and routine. <\/span><\/p>\n

When you look for the passion in everything you do, you start to experience life differently. <\/span><\/p>\n

You appreciate the people in your life and the opportunities you have, and your life becomes about learning and growing into someone better.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.10.8″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”0px|||||” da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” global_colors_info=”{}” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.10.8″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.10.8″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.8″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]
