To Follow Your Head or Your Heart?

from Flip It

I have been at a complete crossroads for a little while now. I describe it like one of those you find in the outback of Australia. Where you can see for miles and miles either way, yet you have no idea what might be on the horizon of either – so you just stay sat in the middle sweating it out under the scorching sun, until you fall into a complete and utter burnout. And burn I did.  You see, when you feel so drained and exhausted, your decisions feel muddled and so you ask everyone around you for their advice – well at least this is what I did. But for every nugget of wisdom that was shared with me, I found myself even more unable to choose which path to follow. Do I take the path that my head was pulling me towards, or do I begin to walk the path my head was calling me to walk. With them both shouting and vying for my attention, I turned to the internet and asked, “should I follow my head or my heart…gut or intuition”? After a lot of digging and a lot of contradictory opinions, I concluded that it was me who had the answer all along, I just needed to do what I had always done before in moments of confusion and uncertainty – take a moment to pause, breathe and welcome both my head and heart in.  So, if you find yourself in unfamiliar territory or unsure as to which path to follow next, I hope this episode will help you to feel a little less alone in your own experience – and to know that both your head and your heart are only ever doing their best to look out for you.
