3 things I love about Lighthouses…and how it can help you✊

Lighthouse

I’ve always had a fascination for Lighthouses. I love how regal and noble they look perched on top of cliffs helping guide ships to safety.


When I visited Plymouth recently, seeing this particular Lighthouse made me think about some of the qualities I love and admire about them that could also be implemented into our lives. 

Here are 3 things I find really cool about Lighthouses & how to use them to make Life Awesome✊ 

1) A Lighthouse stands strong and immovable even in the face of gales and storms 

When we know what our core values are, it’s easier to stand firm, resolute, centred and at peace with ourselves. 

The world and the people around us could be running around frantically but if we know what we stand for and what we believe in, it gives us natural stability, calm and a sense of security that is unshakeable. 

2) Lighthouses are silent yet powerful, admired & looked up to 

We don’t need to shout about our goals and achievements. If we just stay diligent and true to our life’s purpose and love the work we do, the undeniable evidence of our results will shine brightly and speak louder for themselves than we ever could. 

3) Lighthouses are majestic because they’re positioned high but are also sturdy and firmly rooted to the ground 

Stay humble and down to earth and proud of who you are. Honour your purpose by recognising your life’s passion and then live your life in direct alignment➡️with it. 

I believe there’s no greater reward in life than knowing what your purpose is and living it in a way that benefits you and others around you. 

I hope my Lighthouse experience has inspired you as much as it inspired me!

7 Reasons Why you should Start a Business (you’re passionate about)

Mark VIllarorsa - Digital Entrepreneur and Musician

This pic is a throwback when I was invited to record a song for a charity CD in aid of mental health (something close to my heart I champion💪🙏).

It required a long tiring drive to a (beautiful) studio in Folkestone and back unpaid. But it didn’t matter to me. My ‘Why’ was more powerful.

As result of my contribution, I’ve made AWESOME new friends👭👫👬, helped spread awareness of mental health to others, and hopefully inspired people with my song.

I believe the same principle can (and should) be applied when starting your own business, and going after your dreams.

Don’t make the mistake of basing it on a fad, a trend, or just something that looks like it will make money. That’s not a strong enough ‘Why’.

Your ‘Why’ has to be powerful enough to get you out of bed on cold rainy mornings.

Powerful enough to keep you going despite not earning anything to start with.

Powerful enough to keep you going despite setbacks, discouragement, lack of support (maybe even from ones you love most).

Take it from me the ONLY way you stand a chance is if your ‘Why’ is something you’re PASSIONATE about.

So whatever that is for you – Build your Business around that. Here’s why:

Because:

  1. It’s probably your life’s calling!
  2. You will learn, grow and excel at being an awesome leader & human being building a business than you ever will just being someone’s employee.
  3. It will feel like play, rather then work.
  4. You will be Free in Spirit, Mind and Action to decide what’s best for you.
  5. Whether you make a little or a lot of money, you will inspire and help others by your example.
  6. In a big (or humble) way – You can change the world.
  7. You will be HAPPY (doing what you love tends to have that effect)😊

    Keep the love strong 💪

What’s Your Higher Purpose In Life?…

Higher Purpose

You see countless posts about ‘higher purpose’ on social media, numerous books have been written on this subject too. 

It can be a fascinating topic of discussion.  

“What’s your higher purpose in life?” 

Now what if I told you, you fulfill your higher purpose in life all the time? like… 

When you took time out to help a friend in need. 

Or when you contributed time and money you could’ve spent on yourself towards a worthy cause that helped others instead. 

Or when you sat with your mother, your father, or your child…to keep them company, sensing they were comforted and happy with your presence. 

People will often equate higher purpose with a significant achievement that has to happen in their lives. 

But I believe the true measure of our achievements and goals…is how we affect others positively. 

Whenever you choose to act with kindness, compassion and love – in ANYTHING 

Take courage and feel no fear or doubt  Because in that moment you are elevated and fully aligned with your Higher Purpose, and that part of you that makes you shine at your core: Your soul.
