Living from the Heart
May 18th, 2009 by Ana Scherer
Living from the heart means that you choose a life and a lifestyle that are true for you. You make important decisions because they resonate with your heart and with your own values, and not necessarily with those of others. You trust your own instincts more than the pressures from advertising or the expectations of society, family and friends. Living from the heart is about trusting the quiet voice within you that emerges when you quiet down enough to listen.
Moving to Hong Kong was all about listening to our inner voices. We trust that everything will be OK because we are designing our own path the way we want it to be and according to our values. The other part of the equation is to live one day at the time and take actions that will build the road to get where we want. Even when things don’t seem to be moving at the pace we want them to move, we trust that the direction we chose is the right one for us.
The way to live from your heart is to commit to live a life that reflects your inner voice. Ask yourself questions like: “How do I really want to live my life?”, “Am I following my own path or doing things simply because I’ve always done them the same way or because I am living up to someone’s expectations?” Then, quiet down and listen to yourself. The answers will come and you will be surprised at what you might discover.
With energy,
