The tyranny of convenience ...
When walking out of a meeting this afternoon, I was inhaling. Deep ... You know, the inhales that make you feel ‘loaded’ ... I smiled as I automatically moved my eyes up towards the sky. A habit of mine ... Oh’my ... What a beautiful sight ...
Interestingly enough, what was sent to me at this beautiful moment, was a reflection of what the intense meeting I just left was all about ... a window and a heart. You will find it in the photo ... It was a lovely, flirtatious moment, almost as if someone was teaching me a lesson ... `Hanne, don’t just motivate other people to move on, change careers, focus, say goodbye’ etc. - do it yourself. Keep on moving. Listen to your heart!
If we can see our mind as a window of the heart, shouldn’t we try to focus on courage over fear? Open up for growth, joy and love even if it means leaving what feels like a safe harbor ... a place in life where everything is (conveniently) set. If we open up to new adventures, new acquaintances, new career ... as examples, we bring light in through our ‘window’ and the heart will feel the light.
In short: By putting convenience aside and dare to explore new ways, we can not only fulfill our own dreams - but also contribute to those around us. Create growth, spread energy, set new goals. ♥️
Working hard for something we don’t care about is called stress; working hard for something we love is called passion.
