The brave choice between love or fear
Making a choice is already brave.
But seeing where that choice comes from… that’s the next level.
Is this emotion I feel right now coming from that old fear tank sitting in my gut since grade school?
Or is it coming from that bright, joyful part of me that just wants to love and go full blast?
Most of the time, it’s blurry.
But there are clues:
When I choose love, I feel aligned, powerful, even if it’s scary.
When I choose fear, I feel protected… but tight inside. Like I picked the small cardboard box instead of the endless sky.
And careful, your brain has only one job: keep you out of trouble.
So the second you step outside the frame, it yells: “Danger! Unknown incoming! Stay hidden!”
That’s the ego, the loyal guard dog, barking every time you get close to the gate of change.
But you can talk to that old mind, gently.
Tell it:
“Thanks for the service, but right now I want to try something new. I want to trust myself.”
And yeah, choosing love also means choosing a bit of risk.
But it’s a measured risk, felt with an open heart… and solid shoes, just in case.
Because that’s how we move forward: one step at a time, choosing a little less fear… and a little more love.
The heavens and the gods have a real soft spot for the auda-CIOUS.
Yeah yeah, pun totally intended, but it’s true.
Every time I did something a bit crazy, a bit bold, a bit “screw it, let’s see what happens,” BOOM: like magic, doors of the unseen opened.
A coincidence, a meeting, something improbable landing right in my path.
As if the Universe was saying:
“Ah finally, he’s moving! Send him the synchronicities, switch on support mode.”
But here’s the secret condition:
Believe in your dreams.
Take the first steps.
Keep going, again and again, keep the faith in yourself.
And then, yes, then the doors of the Universe swing wide open, like magic (or better said, like well-deserved energetic alignment).
Hasn’t it been said forever?
“Help yourself, and heaven will help you…”
So go on, move forward.
Even if you’re scared.
Even if you don’t know exactly where.
Trust yourself.
And remember:
The heavens and the gods love the auda-cious!
Follow your passions instead of your reason
Key to growth: do what excites you most!
Today, if you want to fully step into the 4th dimension, there’s only one rule: listen to your highest excitement, follow what really lights you up, no compromise.
Yeah, I know… it sounds way too simple.
We think: “Nah, life can’t be that easy, it has to be complicated or it’s not serious…”.
And yet, that’s exactly the key.
That’s exactly what Bashar teaches, an entity channeled for over 30 years by Darryl Anka, followed by millions around the world.
His messages are radically kind: simple, straight, powerful.
They remind us that the smoothest path is always the one of our passions.
Why?
Because the 3rd dimension we grew up in is ruled by matter, survival, the mind, the 3rd chakra.
While the 4th dimension calls us to open our heart, to live from the energy of the 4th chakra: the one of love, joy, and deep passions.
In the morning, instead of asking: “What do I have to do today?”, ask yourself:
“What excites me most right now?”
“What action makes me smile for no reason, just thinking about it?”
And then… do it, even if it’s just a small step.
Because by following that vibe, you step into an energy flow bigger than you.
That’s where synchronicities show up.
Doors open.
The right people appear.
You realize life is conspiring with you.
Remember: the simplest path is often the right one.
And that simplicity is daring to follow your passions, again and again.
I really started to live – or let’s say wake up – at 29.
Before that, I was just surviving.
Between friends, bikes, girls, odd jobs and a few trips, I thought life was just that.
Period.
But honestly, in a bland Swiss town as tasteless as soup without salt, I was off.
After years of parties, booze and drifting through nightlife jungles, I felt it was time to find something else. So I shifted: day job, meditation at night, no more going out, saved up for 18 months.
Then I sold everything.
Next stop: around the world… on a bike!
Yeah, sounds crazy, right?
But for me, it felt natural: I needed to leave, to search… I didn’t know what.
In fact, I was searching for me.
That turned into three years of adventures, struggles, incredible twists… and two books, 20 years later.
The dream island and the big leap
But there’s one scene I’ll never forget.I was in Koh Phi Phi, Thailand (yeah, the island from the movie The Beach with DiCaprio).
Total paradise.
I wanted to stay, but had no clue how.
On a gray day, walking the beach, a bit down… I look up: a dive school.
Me? Dive? Never!
As a kid, my ears hurt just diving in a pool.
But then, crazy thing: my heart raced, and I thought: “What if I try?”
I walked in, asked the boss straight: “Tell me what I gotta do to work here.”
He says: “Easy, I’ll teach you, and you can work after.”
Deal.
OK, I had stepped into an American industry hooked on money. PADI. But I didn’t care, I just wanted to live my dream.
Two years later, I was a dive instructor.
And even better: I became an underwater photographer, because the ocean was calling me, because every dive was pure magic.
A new passion, out of nowhere.
Then came the Internet…
Back in Europe, I carried thousands of paper photos. Some amazing.
Back then, Internet was just starting (Windows 3.1, square boxes on desks, you know?). I spent hours scanning pics, learning to code, building a site.
And boom!
In 2000, I won the Wanadoo Nets d’Or, got on TV and in newspapers.
Thanks to that, I landed a great job.
All because I followed a crazy impulse on a Thai beach.
Moral of the story: when you follow your passions, without calculating, without expecting anything back, the Universe opens doors you’d never imagine.
Wild successes fall from the sky, in ways you’d never predict.
That’s the simplest way to know you’re not where you should be.
Life, at its core, is meant to be smooth and flowing, like a river’s current.
But we’ve been fed beliefs: that you gotta work hard to succeed (but at what cost?), that a fancy degree is a must for a ‘good life,’ that a nice house, a car and loads of money mean success.
But really, there are a thousand ways to live your everyday.
We were only shown one, which makes it hard to think otherwise.
But truth is, life is not just that.
That little girl who, before fear conditioning, before being told that risk or danger were enemies, just wanted to play and explore all possibilities.
Curious, spontaneous, ready to be surprised by the unknown.
But reconnecting with her wasn’t just carefree fun.
It also meant revisiting all the times I didn’t listen to her, all the times she had to shut up, adjust, fit in.
Sometimes it was tough, almost like facing my own inner betrayals.
Today though, I feel she’s alive in me again.
She vibrates in my heart, and she’s back in her place.
She’s got her say again, her impulses, her desires.
Even if sometimes, those desires don’t make sense for the rational adult I am.
Even if they’re not “reasonable,” they’re instinctive, pure, raw.
And that’s exactly what makes them precious.
She’s the one who reminds me life isn’t supposed to be constant calculation, a strategy or a ten-step plan.
Life, deep down, is a dance with the excitement of the moment, with the intuition flowing through us, with what makes us smile for no reason.
And the more I let her speak, the more my life fills with synchronicities, right encounters, flow.
Reconnecting with that inner child is remembering that our passions don’t come from the mind… they come from the heart.
