A few months ago, I would never have said this. Yes, I did have some great times, met great people, had the privilege to be a dad, I was a successful high technology High Technology Innovation Consultant. But I was struggling, really struggling in my life, wearing a mask at work (pretending all was good), scared of losing the relationship I was in (which happened), scared of life, and being a good dad, but not creating anything close to a happy and emotionally safe environment for my daughter (who was consumed by hurt, anger, fears). But on the outside, I was living a good “normal” life.

It is all inside you! Your potential is all inside you! Believe in this, because it is true. I do not like to make statement like this, but I do not find any other ways to say it, because “words do not teach, life experience does”, and I know that you have this potential because I found mine deep inside me, and it took me some determination, effort, work to discover it and let it shine. I am also fortunate to coach people and also to be part of a great community of like-minded people, and I know that it is all inside us, and that we have been told and taught to think differently.

When you find this place, your own inner power, you start taking small actions, and then bigger steps until you are there, sharing your gift (and it can be anything) and Energy to others and receiving back so much Energy. And this is when it becomes so inspiring and magical to contribute more to the world. I am only sharing my experience here and basing this on the experience of people I coach, people I am sharing life with and how they discovered this inside them too after their own personal development journey!

Now, it is amazing how things are coming to me: opportunities, conditions, people and all of this to assist me creating the ways to live my purpose. Your purpose is probably very different to mine, and this is a great thing, as we need the variety of gifts, purposes to offer more to people in the world. And this is so amazing when this is happening, it truly is amazing!

I have blogged about this and here are the links to these posts:

I do really hope I am inspiring you take steps and actions in your life, and the first one is to choose to become the person you desire to be (which is in fact who you are anyway deep inside you), the second is to open your mind, which will then open your heart. This is a difficult step, but more often than we think, good is coming to us, and we get scared and simply kill it, by backing off of what would have been something great for us (I did it many times, and it always led to a full crash). So if you are reading these words and feel there is more inside you, then why not take the next steps (and it could be being coached, learning more or decide to take even bolder steps and follow me in my steps, at least for the start of your journey).
