Are there people out there who would like to discover dreams or passions which are bucket list worthy but don't know where to start? Do you happen to be one of them? Daily life demands so much of our energy that when asked about our hopes and dreams of the future the most people can utter is “winning the lottery” and maybe “travelling around the world”. If you feel stumped about where to begin to unearth your dreams and passions the chewing gum test might be for you. I've noticed in the last few months that there's a totally chewed up piece of gum sitting in my mouth which has ceased to dispense any taste. So what does this have to do with anything? Well most people don't like a piece of gum sitting in their mouth which gives no flavour. We wrap it up, spit it out or swallow it, just to get it out of the way. When we don't it's because we were so focused on something else that the signals from your tongue telling your brain to get rid of it just didn't make it into conscious awareness. Why? It was busy with something more important. Something that you love to precise. And when you catch that tasteless gum repeat whatever you've been doing. Even if it's something as trivial as walking through an urban space devoid of obvious beauty...
