I just got back from a celebration weekend in Rome, where the golden light and timeless beauty whispered to me:
“Amrita, slow down. Life is for living. Your life is so much bigger than your work, in fact, it’s your life that feeds your work. Not the other way around.
Let me repeat it: Your life is bigger than your work.
I know what it feels like to believe that your work – or the job you just lost – is your life.
I’ve been there. I’ve felt the ground disappear under my feet when a chapter closed.
But here’s what I’ve learned, after reinventing myself again and again:
Life is always bigger.
And the more you nurture your life, the more your life feeds your work.
So today, I want to ask you:
Have you laughed?
Have you taken five minutes to pause, close your eyes, breathe and feel alive?
Have you allowed yourself to be enough, just as you are?
Nobody on their deathbed ever said “I wish I had worked more.”
A life well lived resides is in how much we have loved, how much we shared our energy, expressed our light and unique gifts, how much difference we made in other people’s life and this is all about BEING.
YOU ARE so much more than your work.
Take a moment today, even just five minutes, to experience the bliss of being alive.
