6 Tips On Making Your Dreams A Reality
A wonderful article by Chloe Park that I wanted to share:)
Are you seeking meaning, purpose or significance in your life, career, or both?
Or maybe looking to make a change and find something that brings you closer to your true self?
Here are six tips to get you started:
1. Ask yourself, what do you LOVE?
What do you love doing? What comes naturally and easy for you? What traits do people compliment you on? What did you love doing when you were a child? When are you the happiest?
2. Get ready to say goodbye to a lot of people and a lot of things.
When you start living in alignment with your heart,
in the beginning there will be an initial “falling away” of all those
that are not in harmony with your heart’s resonance.
It’s like this — if for 21 years you lived without an epicenter and one
day you realized your heart is now that — imagine what that (at)tracts
and (de)tracts.
3. Make space for yourself.
Make space to explore what it is you truly love and
want to do. Whether that be in relationships, a profession, any aspect
of life — start with YOU and everything else will fall into place.
4. Nurture your heart’s desires.
Make time throughout your day to do something nice
for yourself, to feel good, do something pleasurable, eat something
nurturing, take a bath. Do something at least once a day that makes your
heart feel happy. The more you tend to your heart, the louder and more
vibrant it will be.
5. Know the difference between your heart and your mind.
These are two completely different centers within
the body that with practice — will become one as a harmonious voice. In
Sanskrit, heart and mind are one in the same — the word for it is manas.
With the evolution of Western culture, we have now formed it into two
separate words. Get to know yourself in the mind and in the heart.
You’ll be surprised at what each is saying with each other and against
each other.
6. And most importantly, throughout this process — DON’T JUDGE YOURSELF!
That’s the #1 rule underlying all of this. Be honest
with yourself of where you are at, without judgment, without criticism,
without ignorance and without arrogance. Good for you for acknowledging
the existence of your heart — now it’s time to listen to it. Don’t be
sad that you’ve been setting your heart to the side, be happy that
you’ve remembered and awoken to this pulse! Have fun exploring your
heart — it’s an infinite abyss, I’ll tell you that much.
