What Drives You?

For me, it's curiosity and eagerness. Where is this life taking me? And being ever-inspired by life.

Everything we do in life is driven by our intentions. Our intentions are a powerful force. It is the direction we pursue to move towards our vision. Our intentions reflect our clarity and thought process. It is also the foundation that carries through our decisions.

Everything we do in life is driven by our ego, an automatic operation system. However, a life that is created due to our circumstances can only be limited. When we become aware - of our thought process, behaviours, conditioning, and the way we respond to our life circumstances - it gives us the power to take a step back.

This allows us to keep a bird's eye view of our functioning and behaviours. With this information, we can deliberately shift our ways of life. Our perception is the intention with which we pursue our visions or what drives our decisions. It shows us how our automatic responses cannot be trusted. Rather it teaches us to respond to anything that shows up, appropriately.

While navigating the grey areas, there is no right or wrong of doing things. However, each response can be appropriately based on our state of mind, our capacity, and our emotions.

Our bodies are constantly guiding us forward through internal sensations. It is on us, how we learn to navigate the unknown with this information.

The next time you decide on something, ask yourself 'What is the intention driving this decision?' Is it fear or resentment? Or an intent to progress and grow out of the shell? Always choose the option that challenges you to evolve. Always, one step at a time.
