The Most Fulfilling Road - Listen to Yourself and Be Fearless

Listen to yourself and be fearless in your actions. Nothing comes easy because we get in our own way. I heard someone say that a long time ago and from my experiences I know it's true.

I woke with the blazing thought in my head I am the captain of my ship, I am the master of my soul and nobody is going to stand in my way to hinder me in pursuing my desires, whatever they turn out to be!

I feel powerful and ALIVE and I am only 55 years young this 2014. Nobody on this planet can take this feeling away from me and the same goes for you.

Live your life as you see fit and follow your own beat. It is NOT easier said than done. It's a matter of doing, facing down all challengers whoever they may be - family, friends, lovers, neighbours - mowing down all obstacles whatever they happen to be and as I have learned, it's the petty shit that comes of most as excuses for their supposed concern. People just don't like change. It's too scary.

Listen here, the most fulfilling road is the one you choose.

You were not put on the planet to please anybody except yourself. That sounds selfish to some but what the heck. If you don't get up and get what you want, I guarantee you nobody is gonna come and give it to you.

It doesn't matter how you start or what you do, just get up and do it. There's no better time than right now, today!

YOU are unique! They broke the mould when they made you, and me. It is time to embrace your Self, drop the mask, step out, step up, be real and make a change every day. Do something you've never dared before and use the energy from your self-righteous anger to power you through the crowd of naysayers (well, we just don't do that) who want you to remain like them.

Stop playing small. It doesn't become you and only serves to make comfortable those who are too afraid to be.

Here's a reminder of who you really are.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. 

We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be?  You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.  There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. 

We are all meant to shine, as children do.  We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.  It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.

And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

― Marianne Williamson, A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of "A Course in Miracles"

Finding Your Next Step in Life by Madisyn Taylor


It is when you are willing to listen to yourself and be fearless that figuring out your next step becomes easy.

There are many ways to discover what the next step on your life path should be. If you are someone who seeks to satisfy your soul, it is vital that you make this inquiry.



Often, your inner voice will counsel you that it’s time for a change, and it is very important to trust yourself because only you know what is best for you. Personal growth always results when you let yourself expand beyond the farthest borders of what your life has been so far.

When figuring out what your next step will be, you may want to review your life experiences. The choices you’ve made and the dreams you’ve held onto can give you an idea of what you don’t want to do anymore and what you might like to do next. It is also a good idea to think about creative ways you can use your skills and satisfy your passions.

Visualizing your perfect future and making a list of ways to manifest that future can help you choose a logical next step that’s in harmony with your desires. Meditation, journal writing, taking a class, and other creative activities may inspire you and provide insight regarding the next step in life that will bring you the most satisfaction.

It is when you are willing to listen to yourself and be fearless that figuring out your next step becomes easy. Beneath the fear and hesitation and uncertainty lies your inner knowing that always knows which step you need to take next.

If you can allow the taking of your next step to be as easy as putting one foot in front of the next, you’ll notice that your next step is always the one that is right in front of you. All you have to do is put one foot forward and on the ground.
Our lives are made up of a complex network of pathways that we can use to move from one phase of life to the next. For some of us, our paths are wide, smooth, and clearly marked. Many people, however, find that they have a difficult time figuring out where they need to go next.

Determining which “next step” will land you on the most direct route to fulfillment and the realization of your life purpose may not seem easy.
