I have often been told that I am brave because I take chances that some might be afraid to take. Others might have called me crazy for my choices. I often dance to the beat of my own drum, straying away from “conventional wisdom” (oxymoron much?) in most things. The reason for this is not because I wish to rebel but because, for lack of a better term, I know better. The reason I have been able to take so many chances is because I have a strong inner knowing guiding me on my path.

When I am faced with difficult choices and I am not sure on how to proceed I will envision multiple scenarios in my mind. The scenario, the solutions, the answer I have been looking for will sing to my heart that this is the correct choice. So while I might be nervous about taking a leap of faith, I know that it is the right choice.

But, knowing is only half the battle! So what’s next? You know what you want but you don’t know how to get it. How do you make that possibility your reality?

The thing you do at this point is pray. Pray to god, your higher power, the great spirit, or the four winds. Whomever it may be, just pray. Tell them what you want. Tell them your fears. Ask your questions. Surrender it up and then trust. Trust that your inner voice will guide you down the path you need to take. Trust that soon you will have the answers and guidance that you seek. Keep your eyes and hearts open and be ready for some miracles. Time and time again prayer has changed my life in the most amazing ways.

So, what will you do? Will you take a risk? Will you listen to your inner knowing? I pray that when you hear that song in your heart you will listen.
