What is it about Tuesday nights and Rock Star Supernova that gets me so pumped up? It’s not that these are THE most talented musicians that ever walked the planet. Some of them are good. Some are REALLY good. A couple are GREAT.
What gets me goin’ is the fact that they are putting themselves “out there” and letting it all hang out. These future rock wannabe’s are raw. Vulnerable. Real. Energetic and passionate. They GET it!
Being that my business is called Passion Meets Purpose, I often get asked, “How do you know what your passion is?” I’ve addressed it before. And I’ll address it again. Our ONLY purpose in this world is to live passionately. Do what you love. It doesn’t matter if anybody else “gets it”. It doesn’t matter if anybody else likes it. It doesn’t matter if it’s the popular thing to do.
What gets your motor going? What keeps you up at night and can get your ass out of bed at 4 in the morning? My friend Joe actually gets up that early cuz it’s the only time he can find privacy to write! (I get up around 5, but 4 seems certifiable).
Do you like knitting? GO knit! Do you like baking cookies? Mrs. Fields created an entire freakin’ cookie EMPIRE around it. Are you crafty? Maybe you’re the next Martha Stewart. Are you the scrappiest scrapper on your block? Hello…have you seen the big business that is scrap booking? Turn your hobby into a business.
You like cooking? Check out Rachel Ray or Emeril or the Take Home Chef. Do you crochet doilies and mittens for your kitty? Who cares if people don’t think you’re cool. If you dig it…if your heart opens up and your head feels lighter and your day seems brighter…DO it!
As you step into your own unique talents, doors begin to magically open up before you. Doors you never even knew existed. Opportunities present themselves to you as if by magic. I’m not kidding. My life and the lives of my clients are proof.
Your ONLY mission is to have the time of your life! To LIVE and LOVE and FEEL. That’s why I dig watching live music so much. I can FEEL the energy, the passion, the raw, real, gritty emotion that these musicians have. It’s like Tommy Lee said tonight. When he gets up there and is doing his thing on the drums, it’s like he’s in another world…almost like a trance. Otherwise know as the zone. Also referred to as the FLOW. When you’re tuned-in and turned on, you’re co-creating magic with the Divine.
It’s like great sex. When that connection is so magnetic, so energetic, so organic and raw - you have no concept of time. You just ARE. You’re floating. You’re drifting on that super-highway of ethereal energy. Riding the waves of the eternal Divine source that is God, the Universe, Spirit – call it what you will. When you’re in it, you know it. And it feels G-double-O-D. Can you dig?
What can you do today to tune into your unique gifts? What lights you up from the inside out?
Rock on,
kam

What a great point! It does feel great to do what I love - it’s not work at all!
And by the way, I LOVE Rockstar too LOL! Now I’ll watch it with a new thought that they are “letting it all hang out” and going for it
