“You know that someday is just a thought too. It doesn’t exist. It’s just an idea. So it never gets any closer.”

Mara quoted her husband, Eirik Grunde Olsen, in her book One Thought Changes Everything, as they were talking about how they wanted to make a change in the world.

Someday isn’t real. Someday will never come unless you choose it today.

If you’ve been around here for a while, you know Jason and I often use the term “what if.” Someday is another one. It is easy to say. Easy to put on a shelf and look at with wonder. Easy to dream about. But Eirik was right. Someday is not real.

Mara put it best. “Because in that moment, I realized the only thing standing in my way was the illusion of my own thinking.”

We often look at our lives as if we need to do this before that, achieve this so that will happen, earn this to feel that, get that title to speak there. But just like someday is not real, neither are those conditions we put on ourselves. The only thing that is real is right now and the thoughts we are having that create our reality.

Jason and I are so excited because our someday is actually tomorrow. For years we have talked about building a community of leaders who are looking for more in their work, lives, and relationships. We craved a space to get better at our work but also as partners, friends, parents, and humans alongside other leaders doing the same. 

So we built it. It launches tomorrow. The Arcadia Constellation. Mara is kicking us off, and I could not be more excited to grow alongside you.

Because someday is just a thought. What are you waiting for?

Our someday starts tomorrow. Your’s can too. 

Be Great,

Sam
