What lights you up?
What would you do if money wasn’t an object?
Where can your excitement lead you?
Often young people are encouraged to follow a career that pays a certain amount of money or that is expected of them by others. However, if we dedicate the majority of our lives to doing something we don’t like we tend to start acting in ways we don’t like. Why? Because we are miserable inside.
We have all experienced these moments in our lives (sometimes days that turn into weeks or, even worse, months) when our light has been dimmed or extinguished and dreams left aside. We end up behaving in below average ways, either hurting ourselves or hurting others.
How can we break the cycle of darkness and ignite our passion again? When everything is dark and we don’t know where we are, let alone which direction to take, how can we find the light?
My suggestion is to find someone with a torch and a map! There are many mentors and role models out there both living and nonliving that can inspire your new direction. Look for someone who inspires you holistically; they are successful on ALL frontiers of life. Remember, with some direction, motivation and discipline anything is possible.
On a day to day basis, I also like to use essential oils to inspire me in my work, they keep me clear, joyous and kindle my motivation. I have been an ambitious woman most of my life, always striving for the next thing. These days I’m less ambitious and more aligned, so I don’t need to paddle up stream so much. Instead I paddle with the current and trust that I’m going exactly where I’m meant to. Don’t be confused though, I’m still paddling with the same amount of passion! The key difference is that my higher power is guiding my higher purpose so I am in flow.
