I love this question. How do I connect with my "pull"? I agree that sometimes we need to push ourselves to get started but if that's the default, something is not in alignment within us. We need to feel our pull, that calling to do or be something that inspires us forward. For me, the pull is to create space to talk about the disenfranchised traumas in life that inhibit us. In the quest for success and being positive, sometimes we overlook the value in exploring those things that have harmed us, from which we can learn and then free ourselves. Sometimes people believe that being positive means ignoring the past. But I believe it is in making sense of the past that we can open up to our true "beingness" and then be authentically pulled towards a purpose that is in alignment with who we are and what we are meant to be. Thank you for this reminder today!
Love #2. Never accept critic from someone who you wouldn't accept advice. This goes along the same path as, don't accept advice from someone who isn't where you want to be. Limiting beliefs can be so tough to push through, especially when they come from loved ones. But you must be un-practical in your motivation to achieve when everyone around you is pushing for practicality. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much Faith, for sharing your perspective and your own "pull." I hope you're finding that alignment as you move ahead!
