“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.” – Steve Jobs

There are people in your shoes right this second, pondering the same life dilemmas as you.

They are moving into a new season in life but haven’t yet adjusted their mental wardrobe.

They are considering quitting their job to pursue their dreams, or adding a second job to better pay their bills.

They are contemplating downsizing their dwelling or adding space to accommodate their growing family.

They have thoughts of relocating to a new city or country – or perhaps moving back home.

They are weighing whether to have another child or to leave well enough alone.

They are considering whether to stay in an unhappy relationship or cut ties.

They are changing careers or determining whether to go back to school.

They are deciding which battles to fight and which ones to walk away from.

They are mulling their options over a glass of wine with a friend. They are having deep-hearted conversation in bed with their spouse. They are working out their muscles and a solution on the treadmill with their trainer.

They are listening to the divine within.

Intuition. Our inner compass. Trust it.

There is a voice inside of you that whispers all day long, ‘I feel that this is right for me, I know that this is wrong.’ No teacher, preacher, parent, friend or wise man can decide what’s right for you – just listen to the voice that speaks inside. — Shel Silverstein
