What Are You REACHing For?

At REACH's recent DSU Goes Purple event at Delaware State University, we invited participants to reflect on a simple question: What are you REACHing for?

There's something powerful about putting a goal, desire, or possibility into words. But identifying what we want is only the beginning. What happens when we begin examining whether the lives we're living actually support what we're reaching toward?

Is the life you're living creating space for where you want to go?

Now think about what you're currently working toward.

There's a difference between wanting change and being willing to make changes. We may know what we want without fully considering what it might require of us. And what we're holding on to may be the very thing keeping us from moving forward.

Progress doesn't always require a major decision. It can begin with an honest reflection on where your time, energy, habits, or attention no longer align with what you want for yourself. Recognizing how far you've already come is equally important, even if you're not quite where you want to be.

What might need to shift in your life to make more room for what you're REACHing for?

Until next time,

Keep REACHing!
