The Background

When we were kids, our dreams spanned such wildly amazing and delightful ideas.  We knew no boundaries of the fictitious world we would create, the sky was the limit.  Yet as we grew older, we slowly began to lose that zest for our wondrous world of imagination.  We let cognitive reality take over and before we know it we’re living in the “real world.”
 
The perception of our behaviors as adults dictates a worn path: college, job, family, retirement.  Our parents spent their careers working each day toward that magic number at which they can finally retire and begin to enjoy life.  Our generation has been blessed with more opportunities than our parents could have ever imagined at our age; opportunities and wildly possible dreams that beg for a path less traveled, a path called Moxie.

Moxie is having the courage to step beyond the predictable boundaries and live your life, live it now and live it on purpose.  Imagine how it would feel to be in a space where there is no delineation between work and passion.
