Finding your tribe

Some one say that my tribe is people on the path of recovery as I have been sober for fifteen years now and I can talk about the struggles of sobriety. There is a problem with this, a big problem. This is not the tribe that I chose or that I am have the heart to help grow. I rarely find myself talking to people about my recovery or the steps I took to become sober. I would not do a sobriety tribe any good. I would do more harm than good.

You can’t have someone choose your tribe for you. When you are passionate about the things you love and share them. You connect with other like minded people, that have a worldview similar to yours, one person at a time. You will find that one person that needs what your help and together you will build a tribe. 

The critics will come too, people that don’t agree with you and don’t share your views of the world. That is okay, you should strive to connect people and build a tribe that is open and connects with you and each other. We all have a different and unique way of viewing the world. Some of that is the same as others and some of it is very different. 

We have to be willing and open to connection with others. To share, communicate, listen and learn. We are all in this together, we can’t do it alone and we need each other. Together we can change the world and grow together.

I, one day hope, to turn this into a career and that would be amazing. It would be truly amazing to have a career doing what I love to do. I know that one day it might be.

I started this post about finding your niche and all the questions I had about finding your niche, but it turned into something completely different the deeper I went into what it takes to find a niche group of people. 

The more I read about finding my niche and why it was so important about finding my niche. The more I began to understand that what I want to build here was something more then just a niche or a calling. 

I want to build a place for you to come, to talk about the things you love and you are passionate about. To build a tribe around what we love and what make us passionate about life. I want this to be our place to connect with each other and share what we love with each other and the world.
