LESSON OF THE MONTH
When you start to see choices as lying somewhere on the love–fear continuum, your decision-making process becomes much simpler. Don’t avoid taking action because you are scared of what may happen. When you have a big decision, listen to your heart, and make your choice from a place of love. Choosing to listen to the voices of fear, whether external or internal, prevents life from sending new opportunities. Choosing to listen to the voices of love, opens up a whole range of new possibilities for you.
Many believe that there are only two primal emotions in human beings, love and fear, and that we cannot feel both at once. Almost all of our ‘feel-good’ emotions come from love, while almost all of our ‘feel-bad’ emotions come from fear. From love flows the ‘good’ of happiness, contentment, peace and joy. From fear comes the ‘bad’ of anger, hatred, anxiety and guilt. Love is always a better motivator than fear. Whatever your fear – disappointing someone, not being ‘good enough’, or being judged – rather decide with love.
“I Matter has opened my mind in ways I never imagined possible. People at work smile more, listen better, and even work harder! I told my boss, the other day, that it is like a dream come true.”
