Your inner voice; it’s probably talking to you right now. The angel and the devil on your shoulders.

We often give our inner voice a negative connotation as it can manifest as the inner critic. But what about when it whispers of our dreams and deepest desires. Do we heed the call when it tells us to follow our hearts and take a risk? When it tells us to go out of our way to lend a hand.

Why don’t we listen to it? It’s scary. It tells us to do what’s unconventional, what goes against the norm, what we’ve always done. We are seeking happiness and success but often ignore the advice coming from the source that knows us best: our consciousness.

In the words of Viktor Frankl, “Listen to what your conscience commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge. Then you will live to see that in the long run—in the long run, I say!—success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think of it.”
