Your future is determined by your ability to make decisions and certainly if you wish to have a life with a sense of purpose and fulfillment these decisions need to come from our hearts souls and minds. Your ability to make holistic decisions can only be achieved if your conscious mind is able to heed and respond to your heart and soul.
Your sub-conscious mind looks after the routine response to keep your physical body operating, whilst your conscious mind reacts to sensory messages and memories both real and inherited to plan and take whatever action it considers necessary to respond to events.
With a constant stream of events the conscious mind is kept busy jumping from one thing to another with rarely an opportunity to consider at any depth the likely consequences of its decisions. With a bit of planning here and action there the conscious mind soon becomes the center and master of all decisions, occasionally if a decision has some impact on others, their needs or likely response are taken into account and is reflected in the decision.
As soon as the feelings and needs of others is taken into account, empathy or heart has entered the decision-making process, making the decision have a better chance of acceptance by others. So decisions which consider wider implications and are heart-felt are not only more acceptable to others they are more likely to have a successful outcome.
Decision making using the conscious mind and a bit of heart-felt consideration has its limitations which can only be enhanced when our souls or spirit come into play. This can only be achieved by consciously taking time out to, "Smell the Roses," or savor whatever we do.
The human soul or spirit is our unspoken connection to each other and our creator; we are barely aware of its presence and as it is not in the least assertive can sit almost dormant with little or no input into our decision-making. However, it is always there and it is up to our conscious mind to stop and contemplate its presence and give it the freedom to play its part in our decision-making process.
So our future is determined by our ability to make decisions and certainly if we wish to have a life with a sense of purpose and fulfillment these decisions need to come from our hearts souls and minds.
