My best type of meetings

Most people are dying from ignorance (Hosea 4:6)


On Thursday I had a scheduled meeting. In my mind nothing too out of the ordinary, the usual chat about what's happening, options, moving forward, plans and the whole shebang! I had two meetings before with her and after I thought to myself and actually said it out loud as I was getting into the car " Self, you learnt a lot from that meeting about life and life lessons" She came across to me as wise, authentic and genuinely interested in people before work. People seemed to be the most important thing in the whole scheme of the work!
How many top executives have I met with that mindset? Not many! I can count them on one hand! Those that are "free" and by that I mean they aren't scared about meeting targets, being shown up by someone else, confident in their own skin to learn and share and has balance?

After Thursday's meeting I got back into the car and thought the same thing, wow I learnt some life lessons there and the best line for the meeting was 
"You can never go back to the past to change anything and you cannot ever hold yourself hostage to make up for mistakes or things you thought were your mistakes" You will be in the negative for a long time, make peace with it, accept it and focus on now" Chances are it wasn't your fault anyway, and if it was forgive yourself, start there"
I say there just soaking it all in
She is what I would call "ah real boss!!" 
I give thanks for all of these encounters!
Peace!!

Redefinition of Lose

Rather than think about what you have to do to change a situation, consider what the situation might be doing to change you. How it might be seasoning and transforming and growing you. You are not responsible for everything and everyone. Allow that as a possibility. Jessica Dore There are some situations that are simply in your life showing you how to shift, how to be flexible, to grow, to transform. You long for change, yet you cling so to the familiar. You are so afraid of what you think you will lose. You are even afraid to lose the things you don't want. The familiar becomes your family, regardless of what it is. let's redefine "lose" I define lose as opening up to a new possibility The day I stopped saying that I lost my house, lost my marriage, lost my mind, things shifted for me The shift has to start inside How we define and relate to the circumstances in our lives transforms how we act. I started asking myself different question...

Someone is cracking open their joyous nature

Right now, Someone has recently cracked open their joyous, genuine nature because they did the hard work of hauling years of oppression off of their psyche Danielle La Porte, author One doesn’t just wake up one morning and is suddenly enlightened! Sorry it just doesn’t work that way! It is not by magic that your life is changes, it’s by choice! One has to be willing to do the work, it is really just that simple. Doing the work takes responsibility, it takes self love, and compassion, it takes you telling the truth to yourself every single time! Denial and blame becomes things of the past! As soon as you find yourself denying and playing the same blame, you are off track, get off that bus and take another one You got to be willing to do the work and accept some good home truths about yourself and your life and trust me it ain’t pretty or fun at most times. I am telling you in my case, I was deep in denial, in a cave really, a deep dark one! I kept telling myself that...
