Follow Your Heart

Too often we stop ourselves from following our passion. Usually, it is our own thoughts that suppress our dreams or the opinions of others that keep us from reaching our fullest potential. I am here to encourage you to follow your heart.

Each person is unique. Therefore, our stories are not identical. A person's journey helps to shape his or her goals. Thus, it is no surprise that what I want to accomplish is compatible with my story. What you want to accomplish is compatible with your story. Problems arise when we try to satisfy other people's ideas of what we need to achieve in our lives. The truth is that while some will have suggestions about what we should do to feel fulfilled, only we know what is going to make us happy.

Spend time with yourself. When you are alone, use the quietude as a platform for reflection. Think about who you are, consider your talents, and focus on what you need in order to become a well-rounded human being.

Increase your confidence by realizing that nobody else in this world is exactly like you. The qualities that make you different actually make you special. Engage your compassion and creativity and shape your life in a way that makes you proud to look in the mirror each day. You are one-of-a-kind and your dreams should reflect this individuality.

You can stand on your own. It is in your sphere of self-love that you will find the courage to step outside of the box and dream bigger. When you follow your heart, you will lead with the passion necessary to operate on a higher level. Time is precious and when used wisely, amazing things can happen in your life.

Stop worrying about whether you are qualified to be successful. Stop waiting for other people to verify your dreams. Step into the light of success. You deserve to be happy. Follow your heart and you will find the joy that has been waiting for you all along.
