| bliss. In the 80’s I was teenager, and I followed my Bliss by Break dancing and Pop Locking. This is a form of dance that evolved out of Hip Hop culture. I remember how much I loved breaking and popping. I did it every day of my life. I practiced breaking and popping before school, during school, and after school. This is what I thought about all day long. I believed that I would grow up and do this professionally. I remember one time when I was in 8th grade – walking through the hallways. A kid came up to me and challenged me to dance against him. (In Popping and Breaking, there were impromptu dance competitions that just happened). I was so nervous, because I had never competed like this before, and I wasn’t sure I was ready. I knew I was good, but I still felt afraid. The kid kept challenging me, so I put my books down and started dancing. It seemed like the whole school was there. I could hear the crowd cheering and making sounds as I made my moves. It was exhilarating. I loved the feeling of manipulating and controlling my body. I enjoyed this so much that it didn’t really matter to me if anyone else was watching. I had a pure love and joy for the expression of myself through movement. I didn’t really know it then, but I was following my bliss. In my 20’s it was basketball. Like breaking and popping, I spent all my free time practicing my dribbling, shooting, and ball handling skills. There was nothing more fun to me then to practice my moves and perfect them, and then to test them out in games. I loved the feeling of driving past someone and scoring. I remember being on an intramural basketball team and we were playing in a championship game. There was a few minutes left and we needed a score to keep the lead. One of my teammates past me the ball and I drove to the hoop and jumped in the air. A defender from the other team slammed into me and knocked me to the ground and as I was falling I managed to throw the ball up towards the hoop and it went in. The whistle blew and the ref called a foul on the other team. I went to the free throw line, hit the shot, and we won the game. I received a little trophy that I’ve treasured for years. Hey, it wasn’t the NCAA tournament, but I was following my bliss and doing what I loved. Now I’m in my 30’s and for the past 7 years I’ve been a Life Coach and a Spiritual Counselor. I assist people in moving through mental and emotional blocks and towards getting what they really want. Like popping & breaking, and basketball – I spend my time improving myself by reading books, listening to tapes, attending workshops and sharing my knowledge with others to assist them in achieving their dreams. This brings me great joy. I had a client who I was having lunch with. He was a part time actor. I asked him “What do you really, really want?” He said, “I want to be a full time actor.” I said, “Great, what’s stopping you from doing it?” And for the next few hours he gave me a list of mental and emotional blocks that was preventing him from living his dream. I assisted him in processing through these blocks – one by one – until he was clear. At the end of that hour, I will never forget the look in his eyes. He said, “I know what I’m going to do now.” I said, “What?” He said, “I’m going to quit my job and become a full time actor.” I said, “Do you have a plan?” He said “no” I said, “let’s make one, so you a clear direction.” We made up an action plan. Sure enough, in the next 3 months he was able to quit his job, and move into acting full time. He is now a successful – full time – working actor in Hollywood. He’s been in movies, TV shows, and commercials. And I have to say that when I see him on TV, I get chills and a tremendous feeling of joy because I know that I had something to do with his success. His success is my success. And this is how I’ve been following my bliss today in my current life. |
