Working life can bring a lot of stress; stress and restlessness can work against calmness and peace. Do you think this can negatively effect our practices? Or: Do you make career choices with your spirituality in mind? I wonder, because I could step up in our business hierarchy. It certainly would bring more stress. I would rather not sacrifice spirituality for career and money. Does this even make sense, do you think there is a correlation?
I always try to be honest to my heart…if my hearts wants it, I go for it. If not, than not.
To answer your question directly, yes it can have some effect on the practises. But the effect doesn?t matter, because it isn?t about how the practise is, it is about how daily life is.
So, more stress may will lead to less peace in practise, but it will lead in the long term to more peace in daily life, if practise is continued.
But I think the most important question is how u will have the most impact on society. In the new position u will have maybe more impact and value for your business and so to our society, which can have a great effect on your outpouring of divine love…
Thanks th1996, for your thoughts. 
This sounds great. When we did a 3 months trip with our kids last year, I had a feeling that everything we needed is provided and falls into place. It was wonderful to see and experience. However, back in working life, I still struggle to get back to this sense of letting-go.
I admire your strength to just follow your heart. I feel that I start to walk into that same direction but also feel that it is still some way to go. On the one hand, I still have to find the profession that will spark my passion. Until then, I don’t want to allow a stressful job to interfere. I suspect that my high stress level goes hand in hand with irritability and restlessness, both of which do not help my spiritual journey.
I love your change of a future-based to a faith-based day-to-day orientation.
