HERO or HERD?

The other day, my son forgot his alto saxophone and asked me to bring it to school for him. Since he doesn’t normally forget his stuff, I brought it to him. On my way home from school, the license plate on the car right in front of me caught my attention. In all capital letters the license plate reads “THEHERD.” Quickly I snapped a picture of it with my iPhone.

My first impression was “THE HERO“, and I thought to myself: How fitting…. Think about all the things we do as parents, every single day, for our children. While most are mundane and even trivial, some of the stuff we do are nothing short of heroic. We do it willingly, and we don’t need a medal or a fancy Batmobile, either. I felt a deep sense of pride, thinking “I’m a SHERO who drives a minivan.”

When I got home and had a closer look at the picture, I realized that the license plate reads “THE HERD“, not “THE HERO.” The capital D looks like O from a distance. Haha! Obviously I could use a stronger prescription for my contact lens.

How abut you? What did you see at first glance? THE HERO or THE HERD?

Then it dawned on me that this was yet another “Message from the Universe” for me.

You see, I often receive signs and messages from the Universe through license plates, songs on the radio, animals, message from other people, etc. The messages are often timely and profound. Of course, the more I learn to pay attention, the more messages I receive.

In this case, I was thinking about writing an article on courage the night before, and there it was, right in front of me, “THE HERO” in big, bold capital letters!!

Of course, I know what you’re thinking: “But it says THE HERD, not THE HERO on the license plate! You read it wrong!”

Did I?

I believe that we have a way of seeing what our heart (or Soul, or the Universe) wants us to see, if we are being open and present enough. There’s no doubt in my mind why I was seeing THE HERO instead of THE HERD. For one, I’d rather be a HERO (or I should say SHERO) for my children, instead of someone who just herds them around town. I want to be someone who fiercely protects them, stands up for them, and be a good role model for them.

Same for my own life. I’d rather be a HERO on my own journey, blazing my own path, taking whatever risks to live my destiny. I’m no longer willing to keep my head down, silence my voice, compromise my values, conform to rules and expectations that are not aligned with my true self, or stay faceless, voiceless and powerless in a HERD on a beaten path leading AWAY from my soul’s purpose. You might think it’s safer to say in a HERD. There’s safety in numbers, right? Not necessarily.

Every time you do things that are against your values, every time you ignore that quiet whisper from the core of your being, or give up your voice and your self-respect, in order to play safe, to please others, to avoid being judged, rejected or ridiculed, you are giving up a small piece of your true self. You are slowly but surely killing your Soul. It is painful not knowing your purpose in life. It’s even MORE painful when you know, deep in your Soul, what your calling is, why you are here in this lifetime, yet for whatever reason you are denying it, turning away from it, standing by the sideline and not able to LIVE it.

I saw very clearly this kind of suffocating anxiety and soul-murdering angst in quite a few entries in my ONE DECISION Challenge in the past week. Most of them know their life purpose and why they want to achieve their goals. Their goals are all different and personal. However, when asked what’s keeping them from living their purpose and reaching their goals, their answers were awfully similar: Lack of courage, confidence, self-esteem, self-worth, self-discipline, accountability and/or know-how. I can totally relate, because just a few short years ago, I was there. Lost. Paralyzed by fears. Feeling powerless. Filled with anxiety, guilt, shame and self-loathing. Now I’m crystal clear why I’m here and I’m on the right path.

It takes tremendous courage to go after your dream, to stand up for what you believe, to speak your truth, to be a leader, or, just to be YOU. You might have a vision to inspire and serve a certain population, to make a change or a difference through your business. You might have a personal goal of creating a better life for yourself and your family. Maybe you wish to be a role model for your children, or for your parents to be proud of you. Or, maybe you just want to feel good in your own skin and finally be at peace with who you truly are.

No matter what your goal is, it requires you to muster up your courage and take a stand. It requires you to be the HERO on your own journey, instead of staying in the HERD. What do you stand for? Who/what will you fiercely protect and defend? What are you willing to invest (time, money, energy, hard work)? What are you willing to risk and sacrifice?

The more important question is: WHO will you be? THE HERO or THE HERD? It’s time for you to make a choice.

Message from Hueina Dear $firstname: JOY to you! I felt like I haven’t been keeping in touch with you as much as I’d like. I’m so sorry!! Hope you’ll understand why after reading my update. Since there’s SO much news to share with you, I’m skipping the regular feature article this time. But, there’s a F*R*E*E* Teleseminar I’m hosting next Tuesday 6/14 so don’t forget to sign up! By the way, do you know you can keep in touch with me on Facebook? I’m more diligent posting my updates there. Connect to my Facebook Author Page here. May was such a busy and AMAZING month for me. For the first time ever, I went away for a women’s retreat on Mother’s Day weekend (yup, by myself). It was actually my hubby’s unusual Mother’s Day gift for me. Yoga, walks by the lake, meditation at the labyrinth, spiritual drawing workshop, Reiki, and African drumming by the campfire. I loved my time away, and came home in time for Mother’s Day dinner with my family! The following weekend, I was the guest lecturer at the New Age Health Spa in Neversink, NY (don’t you just LOVE the name of the town?!!) I gave two lectures: “Intensive Care for the Nurturer’s Soul” and “The Venus Evolution”. Again, an absolutely delicious, soul-nurturing weekend in nature. Totally UNPLUGGED (no Internet or cell signal up there). I especially loved quiet time in the yoga center, meditating in front of a MAGNIFICENT, GORGEOUS golden sitting Buddha. And, of course, having the hot tub all to myself, overlooking the field through glass walls was heavenly too! Oh, I LOVE opportunities to combine work and fun like this!!! Wish you were there too? Guess what? You can JOIN ME in September (9/23-9/25) as I will be the featured lecturer at the New Age Health Spa again. Please mark your calendar and stay tuned for more details. After the spa lectures, I spoke at the Holistic Moms Network, sharing with a roomful of moms on how to Claim Your Peaceful Power for long lasting inner peace, happiness, self-confidence and success. There were a few cute little kids in the audience too! It seemed like yesterday when my kids were THAT little. I loved inspiring those moms with young children, as I know how important moms are at instilling values, beliefs and self-esteem in their children, and what kind of lifelong effects stay with a person WAY into adulthood. The exciting finale of May was that my kids (15-year-old daughter and 13-year-old son) and I competed in the New Jersey International Wushu-Kungfu Tournament on 5/29/11, which happened to be my dear hubby’s 45th birthday. We started Wushu training early last year, and competed at this tournament last May too (my daughter won silver and I won gold for our beginner-level Long Fist form). This year, the three of us competed in both the Long Fist form and Long Staff form competition. We even ordered traditional Chinese Wushu uniforms for the tournament. There were 20 students (I was one of only 2 adults) from our school competing at the tournament. It was a BLAST!! My daughter won a silver and a bronze, and I won 2 gold medals!! My son didn’t medal this time, but, he did very well and I’m very proud of him too!! Over the years, I have competed and won gold medals at state, regional and international martial arts championships. That was my #9 and #10 gold medals, and I am very proud of myself!! There are other exciting new projects in the works. This August I’m invited to be a keynote speaker at the 2011 Taiwan Joint Conference in Health Care, a major medical conference in Taipei, Taiwan. I will be presenting Intensive Care for the Nurturer’s Soul to 700-800 medical doctors and hospital administrators. This is my first INTERNATIONAL KEYNOTE speaking engagement, so I’m very excited!! If you know I have a background in nursing and Taiwan is my home country, you’ll also understand why it means SO much to me to return to Taiwan to speak at a major medical conference like this. They have booked my airline tickets and a beautiful suite for me in Taipei. I’ve arranged for the conference to invite my father, who is also a medical doctor, to attend my keynote as my guest. Oh I can’t wait!! Perhaps the MOST EXCITING NEWS of all (yes I’m saving the best for last. DRUM ROLL PLEASE) — I’m invited to be a featured expert in a new personal development movie The Keeper of the Keys, starring Jack Canfield, John Gray and Marci Shimoff. I’m a HUGE fan of all three of them, so, needless to say, I am over-the-moon excited and SO deeply honored to be in the same movie with them!!! ♥ Scott Cervine, who recently directed The Shadow Effect movie (starring Deepak Chopra, Debbie Ford and Marianne Williamson) is the director of The Keeper of The Keys. The same company that handled the international distribution of The Secret movie will be distributing this movie. Can you imagine just how phenomenal this movie will be?!!! Yesterday we had a conference call with director Scott Cervine and the movie producer, and I love how Scott will be filming the movie. Next weekend I’ll be flying to Las Vegas to film my part in the movie. I promise I will keep you posted for sure. Last but not least — Don’t forget to sign up for the F*R*E*E teleseminar I’m hosting next Tuesday! I’m interviewing my good friend Jennifer Longmore, North America’s Soul Purpose Expert. She will share the 9 most powerful questions to help you align your soul’s purpose. It’s a call you won’t want to miss! (read all the details below) It’s been an extremely hot week here in NJ.
