A Heart Centred Approach to Directing the Life We Desire

Why I believe it is more important to use our emotions to direct our lives rather than our  logic. There must be a need for balance in both however I do feel that our emotions, our heart, will guide us more truly towards the life we desire. I also understand that being guided by our emotions is not always and easy thing to do.

Emotions are powerful! Some of us have more powerful emotions that others. We can use them to guide us, and often do however, if we can better reflect on them, without any attachment we are able to use them to make greater decisions to enhance the quality of our lives.

A few years ago while backpacking the globe, Kris decided to build an online game.  As the completion day came near, he thought it would be a good idea to learn how to market it – if anyone else is ever going to play it.

If you awaken a desire within you or pay attention to your dreams things will happen to take you towards it, some times by choice and some times by force. I believe the universe listens to our human callings and then creates opportunities for us to follow. If we don’t make the choices that take us along the path we seek sometimes the universe will force us to.

An awakening, a moment or a time were you had a realisation or desire of doing something more is all it takes to create the momentum you need in life. At these moments we tune our attention towards a new ideal or direction. We allow our thoughts to be generated towards that which we seek.

We then make personal efforts and take action towards it or choose not to however, if we continue to allow these thoughts to occupy our mind the universe has its own way of making us take action.  (more…)

In this episode I discuss my experiences, challenges and learnings as I progress through a challenge that I set myself. The challenge is multifaceted and perhaps I have bitten of more than I can chew but I continue to progress and even as I slip-up and fail  I fight.

There are many reflections one can have as we battle with our body and mind. I have thought a lot about why we do things, why we behave the way we do and why this can affect our ability to progress with ease. When we are so set in our ways change can prove difficult.

Why do we challenge ourselves if it does cause us pain? What is the true reason? I believe the answer is growth, our fundamental human need. I also reflect on why certainty and uncertainty are needs we crave and seek and how this has affected me directly within this challenge.  (more…)

“What would you dare to dream if you knew you couldn’t fail?” Brian Tracy

After a failed business in 1992, Darren LaCroix took the stage in a Boston comedy club and bombed miserably. It was horrible. The headliner that night told him to “keep his day job.” Friends told him that his dream of making people laugh for a living was crazy and stupid. He didn’t listen.

He may have been born without a funny bone in his body, but he possessed the desire to learn and the willingness to fail. These were the essentials for achieving his dream. He says, Effort + Direction = Mastery.

In 2001, Darren LaCroix out-spoke 25,000 contestants from 14 countries to become the World Champion of Public Speaking. Darren now travels the world demystifying the process of creating a powerful presentation. (more…)
