Just around the corner is your aha moment. Before any meaningful change that matters….especially, a possible shift in world-view, a bit of chaos can sneak in. There is often resistance to the possibility of even a tiny shift in perspective...agitation. internal, chaotic energy all around resisting even a small change in our perspective. We don’t [...]
My last post listed the first 5 underlying principles of learning to see the world through a new lens. As I said, until you know that you are the master of how you do see and are willing to observe from a more ‘eyes wide open’ place, you are naturally going to remain stuck in [...]

Curiosity and the desire to learn one new thing tangentially rewards us with many domains of new learning. These are ‘some’ of the [...]
