Ever since my website has been set up, I have been feeling serene and blissful. I have noticed a remarkable change in myself. The last couple months have definitely been life-changing.

I acknowledge and say yes to my desires now. I show up more fully for my journey. It hit me one of these days that I was finally living my truth. I no longer give thought to the outcome. I don’ wait for the outcome either to feel something, I feel bliss and peace right now.

This led me to think about what encompasses living your truth. How do you even know you’re living your truth? So I peered inward and came up with these principles.

Loving and Trusting the Process

Don’t wait for the outcome to occur to feel happy. Make every step of the journey special for you. It’s been the most magical experience to see the final manuscript in my hands when I completed Enchanted Silence. But the truth is every chapter, scene, and milestone was equally special. I have enjoyed the journey of writing a novel more than the final outcome.

When every moment in the journey becomes special, you’ll notice the outcome will come out just as beautiful.

Because when you’re coming from a place of love internally, your external world will reflect that.

Honor Your Desires

When you live your truth, you’ll be pulled by the silent pull of what your heart desires.

I’ll give you an example. I knew I wanted to write a post today. But I didn’t know what to write about. Instead of fretting about it, I let it go. I realized my heart was craving for a beautiful, lengthy run in the park. That’s exactly what I did. I had a lot of work waiting to do at home, but I followed my bliss. It’s as simple as that. I honored my desire and now that I was in a better frame of mind, everything I needed to get done got done faster.

Taking Inspired Action

You know those people who have to always be doing something? They feel anxiety being still, so they force themselves to take mindless action. Well, I was one of those people. It took me some time to understand that I didn’t  have to constantly be in action mode.

Instead, I learned to be still and take action based on an magical nudge inside. When you follow your hunch, you’ll end up taking action that is far more effective and aligned with your energy. This energy will push you forward effortlessly.

Feeling What You Want to Feel Now

When people attach themselves to an outcome, it’s because they want to feel something – bliss, peace, whatever the feeling. But instead of waiting for the outcome to happen to feel this way, feel these things right now. When you start to feel joy in the present moment, you will notice how external circumstances start changing around you.

When you feel centered and happy no matter what the situation or outcome, you’ll find this powerful energy infused with every action and creation. This is life-changing and will connect you to all that you desire.

Have Compassion and Empathy for Yourself

Through my journey of transformation, one of the most important things I did was have compassion for myself. I wasn’t hard on myself and instead gave myself love and support as I went through my journey. Because when you do the inner work, it’s not all effortless. It can start from a place of resistance and may take time to make the inner shift.
