Daily Inspirational Message for May 7, 2013

giveloveCome from the heart, the true heart, not the head. When in doubt, choose the heart. This does not mean to deny your own experiences and that which you have empirically learned through the years. It means to trust your self to integrate intuition and experience. There is a balance, a harmony to be nurtured, between the head and the heart. When the intuition rings clear and true, loving impulses are favored.
– Brian L. Weiss
 

In launching this new site, I had about a thousand decisions to make that would directly impact both myself and other people in both big and small ways. Often, these decisions in some way centered on how much I was willing to take others’ needs and desires into account, and how far I would go in compromising my ideals in order to accommodate their personal preferences. As I weighed these decisions, my husband kept telling me, Honey. You can’t take care of the whole world anymore. This is business! While I heard what he was saying, it never rang true to me, so time and time again when I wasn’t sure what to do, I found myself throwing logic and practicality out the window in favor of love and kindness. I know this will prove positive, for it just feels right. While it probably is too soft and impractical to promote typical business success, that’s fine by me because I’m not interested in a typical business experience anyway: I’m aiming for something truly extraordinary. If being hard-nosed and practical is all you need to succeed, just think what employing the power of love might do! Whenever you find yourself struggling with a decision that will affect other people, I encourage you to ask yourself what love would do and lean in that direction. It has always worked beautifully for me.
