Do It From Love, See What Happens

Do It From Love, See What Happens

Do it from love. Tap into your inner self and act from love. Or with love, if you prefer, but not for love, and see what happens.

Whatever you do, start by taking the time to notice. Just stop and ask yourself: “Do I enjoy doing this? Is it driven by love or the need for love?”

They are seemingly similar, but very different in essence.

When we act for love, we are doing it from a state of lack. When we do something from love, we are performing it from a state of abundance. It’s an entirely new energy and a different feeling.

To get the picture, I’ll share a personal story. Not about something big. It’s a silly story of a regular day. For me, I can make the comparison with showing up for myself for love versus from love.

In the first case, I was doing things for myself with unease. Or maybe the right word would be expectation. And when expectation shows up, it’s rarely modest, and the entire experience becomes transactional. To be even more honest, the things that include self-care are not even easy or sexy at all. They are more often repetitive, boring, and challenging. Yes, even drinking one glass of water takes effort from me, and it somehow needs to be decorated with lemon and ginger at the very least.

However, the entire setting takes a different flow when you do it filled with love. You’re suddenly at ease, and everything feels right and smooth. One thought: How can I do this from love? How can I give love? And see what happens.

Give what you want to receive. See yourself filled with your need and act from a state of fulfillment. The shift is magical.

Try it and share your experience.

Another situation where this proved right for me was starting the car. It was my husband’s words, not mine. He tried to explain to me actually that to start the car on the first try on a cold winter morning, you need to show love, patience, and care. As much as I don’t want to admit it, he is right. Okay, and maybe a little bit of technique and awareness too.

Now, it’s your turn. Choose anything and test it. What gets better results and satisfaction: doing things from love or for love?

And remember, always test for yourself and choose what serves you.
