Heartography-O-Gram One of our dear friends, who is currently on holiday in the Cotswolds (ha, that sounds so posh, especially if you read it with an imaginary British accent), came over to visit just before she left on her trip to England and Paris.
She is a master visualizer and manifester, a brilliant example of someone who deliberately creates her own circumstances. Watching her, it’s as if the entire Universe is at her beck and call, upgrading her life to First Class any chance It gets.
While feasting on delicious nibbly bits and sipping fine liquids, she gave me an example of how she sketches out one of her plans from the beginning. She asks herself, “What is the most proactive, assertive, aggressive action I can take?”
Then when the furthest coordinate on her mental map is pinned, she looks to navigate the other direction. “What is the least assertive, most passive action I can take?”
Now that she has defined the most and the least she is willing to do, she then goes about considering where in between those two compass points feels like the best access to her dream.
That simple idea intrigued me. Usually I can think of two options, but her mental cartography opened up a broader spectrum, a wider range of inspired actions to envisage.
Which naturally led me to pair geographical references to the heart and its many charted and uncharted territories, and the term heartographer suddenly appeared out of nowhere. As 2014 is right around the corner, I momentarily consider myself a heartographer, practicing heartography.
Where, O where, will my heart lead me?
