If you cannot put your heart in it, take yourself out of it...




Often we are subjected to the strong perception built by so-called practical people that heart misleads and brain leads to right decisions. Somehow, this belief is accepted universally and we have all the logics to prove it right.

Sit back calmly and think if brain is what you all need to make a difference, to start afresh, to do the extraordinary or to succeed? Surprisingly, we all will find the answer to be a "NO". World's most successful people did not reach the top with their brains or skills alone but what took them to the top was their passion to make the difference. Your dream, your passion, your inspiration are pulsated in your heart. When passion and skill work together, the end result is often a masterpiece.

There are people who live in a dream world (followers of heart), and there are people who face reality (practical); and then there are those who turn one into the other and these are the people who make history, discover the hidden, innovate and invent and stand significantly successful in life. Neglecting passion blocks creative flow.  When you’re passionate, you’re energized.  Likewise, when you lack passion, your energy is low and unproductive.  Energy is everything when it comes to being successful. 
Its when you break down and no matter how many times you break down, the little voice inside you that says, “NO, you’re not done yet!  Get up one more time!” That’s the voice of passion and courage; what lifts you is not your skills or brains... what gets you going is your heart that believes in the power of your brains and finesse of your skills. 

If you find yourself working hard and loving every minute of it, don’t stop.  You’re on to something big.  Because hard work isn’t hard when you concentrate on your passions.Any lack in skill can be more than made up for by how hard you work towards a goal you care about.

There are many things in life that will catch your eye, but only a few will catch your heart.If you are passionate about it, pursue it, no matter what anyone else thinks.  That’s how dreams are achieved.. that's how Oprah won millions of hearts, that's how Steve Jobs stood successful, that's how Einstein invented, that's how Mother Teresa served, that's how Gandhi made the difference and  that's how you will shine. When we focus on leading a passionate, meaningful life, we are also inadvertently creating a spectacular ripple effect of inspiration in the lives around us.  When one person follows a dream, tries something new, or takes a daring leap, everyone nearby feels their passionate energy; and before too long, they are making their own daring leaps while simultaneously inspiring others.

Try not to underestimate your heart and overrate your brains... be true to your heart and it will instill passion in your work and you will be SUCCESSFUL.Your work is to discover your work and then, with all your heart, to give yourself to it.

To all beautiful souls out there, blessings to you, your work, your passion and all who will benefit from it:)
