Is Your “Music” Still Hidden Inside of You?

" A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he be at peace with himself. What a man can be, he must be." ~ Abraham Maslow

Are you happy with your life? Really?

Many times in life we do what is expected of us instead of listening to what calls us to deeper happiness. Here are some reasons why…

·         You are afraid of what others will think, they might disapprove

·         You have been told that you are not so great at it

·         You feel that you can't do what you love and make a decent living too

·         You believe you don't have the money

·         You believe you don't have the time

·         You are afraid that people will think you are crazy

·         You are afraid your might fail at what you want

These are all just beliefs and excuses; because when either the desire or the pain was big enough we have all done things in spite of any of these reasons!

SO what would it take to claim your own life?

Here are 5 Steps to get you moving in that direction

1- Listen to your Heart – It reminds you of what's important to you. This is done by paying attention to your emotions. If the urge comes up to dismiss them, DON'T! Tune in to see what they are trying to tell you. Let your heart guide you back to joy.

2 – Listen to and Follow your Intuition, Your Gut!  – this is from your right Brain – it connects with your dream and prompts you to follow your heart. it will always lead you in the right direction.

3 – Let the Logical part of your brain – your Left Brain –  help you determine the steps you need to make your dream happen (do not let it talk you out of it)

4 – Be Passionate and Take Risks. Following your heart often means taking risks. When you connect in with your passion, (whatever it is), you will be inspired to take the steps necessary in spite of the risks

5 – Recognize that Failure is a Myth. When you fear failure you get stopped in your tracks. You take things personally. There is no such thing in life as failure. There are only results. For every action there is a result. If you do not get the result you want do a different action.

 Action = Results. Different Actions = Different Results. By taking this attitude you will be less discouraged, develop curiosity and love yourself more.

SO Follow your heart. Listen to how you feel. Let your intuition lead the way. Play your own Brand of Music. Don't die with your music inside you.

Are you living YOUR life? "There is one life for each of us; our own." ~ Euripides

And one more thing…

Tap into more joy. What small joy can you bring into your life for no other reason than joy?

When you allow yourself to do things that create joy in your life

·         You feel vibrantly alive

·         Your body heals and stays well more easily

·         Your relationships flourish

You deserve it!

Yes. You Matter. Own Your Value. It's all about You. And it's about being In Touch In Life.
