Accesing the Voice From Within
Hi Harness Community Member ,
Happy you’re here - as always.
And ready to remind of you to start doing the things that make you happy.
Have you done that recently?
Whenever you think about what you’re most passionate about
What fills your cup
What you would be doing if money was no object
What is the first thing that comes to mind?
And what is stopping you from doing it?
You see -
Most of what people spend their time on are things that don’t make them feel fufilled.
In the rush and chaos of life, it's all too easy to lose sight of the dreams that once sparked interest in the eyes of your younger selves.
The older you get, responsibilities pile up, and routines become the norm, so much that you forget who you are.
You find yourself trapped in a cycle of "shoulds" and "musts," unintentionally abandoning the very essence that once sparked your imaginations.
Which is why taking a moment to pause and reflect is crucial.

And it's undeniably disheartening.
Because no matter how old, there persist ambitions cherished by your inner child.
We were taught how to be practical - and choose careers that maybe didn’t speak to us at all but choose the stability while completely forgetting the things we desire the most.
We were taught to be ambitious, and follow dreams dictated by society - and not our own.
