I once asked famed molecular biologist Bruce Lipton, “From a scientist’s perspective, if you had one piece of advice to pass to our youth, what would it be?” His answer was simple: “Follow your heart.”

What if your dreams invigorate every cell of your body, and bring you the energy to move mountains?

What if, by following your heart, you reduce stress, access your creativity more easily, and add a spring to your step that attracts all sorts of amazing opportunities?

What if all the courage, the faith, the wisdom you need to make it happen is already right there with you, waiting eagerly to be set free?

“What if we’re all meant to do what we secretly dream?” ~ from the song “If I Were Brave” by Jana Stanfield

This week’s UPdate is inspired by singer-songwriter Jana Stanfield and her oh-so-inspiring website. You can download her song “If I Were Brave” online, as well as watch her moving performance of the same song on TED. A great way to begin a courageous week!
