And just like that… it’s 600 hours ✈️
600 hours ain’t much in the grand scheme of things - “mastery” is said to take almost ten times that amount. But in my little world, 600 hours is MY achievement. My dedication to doing something that’s entirely for me.
Those 600 hours have been about the journey of personal discovery. I fly not because I have designs on being a professional pilot, but because I ADORE IT. It’s time I get to think, to focus on something that isn’t work and having to monitor emails, people or their problems.
I get to enjoy time to watch the world go by. It’s where my soul find peace and quiet from the noise of the daily grind.
The intensity and stress of work can be punishing. This picture is me not only celebrating 600 hours of a new skill, but 600 reclaiming happiness. We sometimes forget how important it is to make time for ourselves and the things we enjoy amongst all the madness. Our time - and most importantly our time whilst we’re able to truly enjoy - is so limited and it goes by in a flash. Make it count.
Don’t let the day to day get in the way of doing the things that give your life meaning ❤️ Go out and do what makes you happy.
Thank you for coming on the milestone adventure with me and taking the celebratory pic 😘 I can tell you fo sho my flying skills are better now than when Ed took the 300 hour pic 🤣
