I’ve always had an inner knowing that I could do and be anything.
However, I often doubted myself especially when friends would jokingly mock my business failures, but I didn’t want to settle and become part of the system, so I kept pushing through the embarrassment and judgment.
For me, there have been many ventures along the way, from selling chocolate bars and t-shirts at school, at uni buying a massive inflatable cube marquee to run events in, and selling charcoal for teeth whitening, I even managed to find the niche of selling sunglasses cords. Nothing ever got real momentum though, why? Because money was at the fore front of why I was doing it, and money didn’t have meaning.
Whenever it got a bit much I didn’t keep going, it still felt a bit empty to me.
It wasn’t until I began assisting other people and seeing how I could make a real difference to their life that everything changed.
No I wasn’t an expert, and yes I thought I had to be.
No I didn’t have the medical degrees.
No I didn’t have the social proof.
No I wasn’t that confident.
But I did have a burning desire to spread the message of love. I had the meaning of helping others see that we don’t need much in life to have purpose, and be bursting with love.
In fact I was working in a factory just 10 months ago, and I was able to find meaning in the most mundane of tasks. I knew that job was a part of the journey to doing what I am doing today. I know what it’s like to work in fluorescent light for 8hrs doing the same thing, it has given me perspective and makes me appreciate life so deeply now, but even during this work, I would practice being present, and visualise a future that I wanted to create.
I now live a life I didn’t just dream of but a life I created in my mind and heart, a life of service to humanity, a life that is greater than myself.
Simply put, my message is this; don’t stop, let your friends and family judge you because they may not understand. I urge you to keep trying things, and align what you want with a mission greater than yourself, if it doesn’t work the first time, it wasn’t meant to. Keep that inner fire alive and go again!
