Sometimes I know...and always I know in my heart

I started this blog several years ago, and I've never posted to it.  Today is the day I start.  Thanks to those who support the vision of this blog and my courage in creating it.

This blog is dedicated to those who choose to live from the wisdom of their hearts rather than  from the thinking of their brains.  Daily I wrestle with doing what I know is right in my heart when everything my rational, business-school-trained brain says "Do something different."  Today I choose from my heart. 

My journey began as a child.  At an early age, I "knew" things that a child of five should not know...and I not only knew it, but I trusted it implicitly.  Fast forward decades and in my forties, I started listening again.  From my heart, I gave birth to several published books.  Leading from the Heart and The Alchemy of Fear were published in several languages.  I received emails and letters from people all over the world who were inspired by my words.  Truth! Then came the collaboration The New Bottom Line.  Each spoke to living our truth in our work worlds.  I had known my truth and shared it with others.  I had empowered others to listen to their own truths.  The miracle expanded.  I was humbled. 

Then came The Game Called Life.   It  deeply touched the hearts of everyone who read it.  Unfortunately, not many read it. (Thanks to my friend, Amy Frost, for carrying it to so many.) Helen continues to inspire Lizzie daily and help her to hear what is in her heart.

Who am I?  A post-midlife woman who has struggled her whole life to change the world by listening to the messages her higher power sends her moment-by-moment.  You might call me a modern-day mystique who struggles to live that deeper/higher truth because in my heart I know one thing: the truth of my heart will transform the world, if I have the courage to live it. 

The world is on the cusp of a great decision point during which humankind has the opportunity to choose between evolving the planet to a higher frequency, where we work together to create a better world or continuing on a downward spiral of competitiveness and conflict in which we will inevitably destroy ourselves.  I called it "choice point" in my unpublished book of that name. We are now resting on moments during which we hold in our hands the power to change the world.  How will we choose?  Heart and courage? Fear and frustration?

All of humankind is racing toward a choice point, and there are millions who are frustrated by the not-knowing of what to do.  The truth is: they know.  They lack the courage to choose what they know.  The evolution of the planet rests in the hands of each of us who know  to choose to do what we know in our hearts in every minute of every day.  We are approaching a critical mass.  None of us knows whether we as solitary individuals may actually hold the ability to change the course of humankind.  If each of us does what we know in our hearts, we will  change the world.

What happened today?

Today I ordered business cards designed a decade ago with "You Know On Your Heart" emblazoned on them.

Today I recommitted for the 10,000th time to living from my heart and helping the millions who choose to do so to also live from their hearts.

Today I started a blog dedicated to those living from their hearts.

How will you choose?  Will you join me in doing what you know in your heart? The future of humankind is in your hands.
