There’s 15 hours until the curtain falls on my new program, The Music Inside You

If you’re still on the fence, let me ask you a question:

How do you know if you’re playing the music of your soul or going through the motions of your role?

I think the answer is this:

You can feel it.

Think back to the moment you snagged whatever role you're in now.

Perhaps you remember the rush when HR slid into your DMs or when you opened up the email which confirmed your new post. Maybe you can remember feeling pretty damn pleased with yourself when your friends popped open the champagne or all smug when you updated your LinkedIn profile.

It’s a feeling which says “I’ve made it”.

Now contrast that feeling with the feeling of being completely, totally, utterly absorbed in meaningful work. 

This feeling has nothing to do with external recognition and everything to do with pure, absolute engagement itself. 

Can you FEEL the difference?

One is the feeling of being patted on the back by a bunch of bystanders for a role you’re playing. The other is feeling a warm, lasting inner glow straight from your soul, knowing that your authentic self is fully alive.

You’ll notice a world of difference when you tap into these feelings.

Another example:

Think of a time when you were in hustle mode. 

Could be when you were burning the candle at both ends, when your calendar was overflowing with meetings or when you were cancelling plans because you had too much on your plate.

If you were anything like me when I was in v1 of my banking career, the feeling of the hustle ‘n’ grind was a strange mix of despair and smug superiority. 

It felt like winning medal after medal in an event I didn’t want to enter but couldn’t seem to leave.

Can you feel that for yourself?

Now compare this feeling with following your own inner tempo. Like a time you worked because you wanted to work or because the work called out to you.

To me, this feels like being in total sync. It’s the feeling of being exactly where I’m meant to be.

Can you feel that too?

This is the feeling of your soul vs the feeling of your role.

I suspect most people in corporate will read ideas like these and wonder what on earth I’m blabbering on about.

But a small and spirited minority will grasp it straight away. They’ll know in their bones that there’s a quiet, unshakeable peace which comes from living a life where your actions are aligned to the truest desires of your heart and soul. A peace that takes all the weight off your shoulders, melts the tension from your chest and lets you fully breathe out. And they’ll realise too that this is the EXACT SAME peace which the corporate bods are chasing but will never find in their new corner office or via their fancy job title.

If you’re part of this minority, this email is for you.

And if you’d like to turn up the volume on the feeling of your soul, my new program The Music Inside You is for you too.

If you want in, there's less than 15 hours left to join.
