What's the point of being successful if you are success according to society, but you are a failure according to yourself?
Living success is living life on Your own terms, realizing Your dreams, living according to Your values.
The dreams I had as an 11 year old were to learn languages, to live and work abroad, to travel the world and learn all the fascinating things out there. My dream was not to become a Tantra Teacher as I did not even have a clue at that time what it meant. 😉 It only came later and today it's reality.
All I ever dreamed about got realized. I don't say it out of arrogance. And I'm not kidding either. I say it because seemingly I had no resources to realize that what I was dreaming about each time. But I kept dreaming and talking about it, takng action in that direction, and each time things were aligning to make it possible for my dreams to come true.
But it was not just coming to me. Often I had to literally jump into unknown, take a risk. I needed to take action and trust it would come out alright. And one way or another it always did.
Ordinary life never inspired me. I could not care less about the ordinary comfort out of fear and for the sake of safety and security.
Robin Sharma once said "Most people die at 20 and get burried at 90". It was never the reality I wished to be part of. I'd have better died immediately.
What really got me on fire were things that SURPRISED even myself that I could do or be. Things that I could contribute that created JOY not only for me but for many other people too.
And each time the dream is alive, it is experienced as passion in the heart.
These very days, I'm opening the space to dream again while I continue contributing at the level I've created until now.
What are your dreams?
What moves you beyond any rational comprehension?
What sets your heart on fire 🔥?
What touches/breaks your heart?
What would you be and do if you had no fears?
What would you be and do if there was no past?
Dream, my friend.
And let life move and sing through you in the most ecstatic way!
