Follow your Bliss

'Follow your Bliss' is tatoo’d on my lower back - not too many people know this - well they do now! 8 Tatts in Total! My favourite number. Where are the others?....mmm....to be revealed...

Anyway,

This quote 'Follow your Bliss' has always resonated strongly with me. Here's a little info on its origins.

Joseph Campbell, The late Great American mythologist, writer and lecturer said:

“If you follow your bliss, you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for you, and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living. Wherever you are—if you are following your bliss, you are enjoying that refreshment, that life within you, all the time”

All I can say is, that for me, everytime I Follow my Bliss - that ‘inner feeling’ - things just seem to flow. Go against it and bad shit starts to happen....simple really.

'The Fighter Within'

So how did I come across the book 'The Fighter Within'?

And how has it changed my life?

In my last Blog I mentioned that an '11th hr gift' as I call it, arrived in my life at the Perfect time. I'd recorded my album 'Soul Tripping' and was doing the last stages, Photography, Artwork etc. and things just kept on getting delayed. F*****k! I was so frustrated and it was really beginning to get me down. Out of the blue I got a phone call from an uplifting guy who said his guitar teacher had recommended me as a teacher and could he come and have singing lessons with me. Rocky Warren, the author of 'The Fighter Within', came bouncing through my door the next week. We had a Great first lesson and at the end he mentioned he'd written a book and gave it to me that night.

I couldn't put it down! I started reading it that night, finished most of it by 3am and completely finished it the next day. It made me cry - in a good way - and laugh too! And changed my understanding in a way that made me flow with the delays...and create less delays.

I continue to teach Rocky and he continues to teach me through our chats before and after each lesson. His book I flick through daily and his audio book I have in my car! He really is a Great example of a person living his truth - he teaches by example - check him out at www.thefighterwithin.com
