Deep Thoughts

I found Heaven on Earth

August 22, 2023

Hey! I want to tell you about my 30-Day Utopia Challenge

What does a utopian world look like to you?

Utopia means ā€œideal place.ā€ So a utopian world is a world where everything is aimed to be perfect. Itā€™s a heaven on earth.

Over the last few months, Iā€™ve been thinking about how our thoughts and actions shape much of our reality instead of our objective world.

It made me wonder if living in a utopia in my mind was possible regardless of the world around me.

And thatā€™s what sparked this question that I want you to ask yourself:

How would you spend your time in your vision of a utopian world?

Here are a few things on my list:

  • Traveling the world
  • Meeting interesting people
  • Learning new things
  • Living a healthy lifestyle
  • Creating more

Take this list, and I challenge you to convert this list into something you can do over the next 30 days.

Here are a few things on my list:

  • travel to four places Iā€™ve never been before
  • meet four interesting people
  • learn Spanish, coding, and chess for an hour each a day
  • play basketball 3x a week
  • continue writing my book
  • delete social media apps (create more time to live in my personal utopia)

Your to-do list is your 30-Day Utopia Challenge. I challenge you to check this off over the next 30 days.

I did this in July and it completely transformed my appreciation for life. I still had to live my normal life and check off my usual to-do list, but what I did with my time outside of completing mundane tasks was game-changing.

I was more excited to wake up in the mornings. I felt myself transforming as I fell more deeply in love with Spanish, coding, and chess. Iā€™ve met some fantastic people who I hope will grow into lifelong connections. My book is almost at the finish line.

Overall, I feel fulfilled in a world where fulfillment is challenging.

While a group-utopian world is out of your reach, an individualized-utopian reality is right in front of you, waiting for you to grasp it. Itā€™s a choice you must make every day until your utopian to-do list becomes a fulfilling lifestyle.

Stay creative,

Dwayne
