Living Life to the Full
“Don’t ask yourself what the world needs - ask yourself what makes you come alive, and then go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” Harold Thurman Whitman - Philosopher and Theologian
Do you think that this quote points to a powerful distinction, that is so important to how joyfully and purposefully we live our lives?
We’ve noticed that our client’s report more energy, purpose, clarity, inner peace and power as outcomes of the Foundation Course. One recent client, when she really connected with the information we’d given her about her Essential Self, said,
“This is IT, I don’t need to know any more!”
Now, she didn’t mean she never needed to learn anything new, what she meant was that she now knew what was ‘true north’ for her, what her ‘inner compass’ was when considering anything new. So, for example, any new self development input would now be filtered through this template, and only what matched would be internalised, rather than scatter energy and identity because of little insight to who she really was.
This really increases levels of joy, self acceptance, and a sense of ‘flowing’ with life rather than being buffeted by it.
I guess the axiom that ‘To thine own self be true’ surely applies here, and the more we are able to be true to our ‘best’ self, the more we naturally come more fully alive.
What do you think? And how would you rate your ‘aliveness’ factor on a scale of 0 - 10, if 10 equals you being fully present and alive in each moment, living consciously rather than reactively?
