February 17, 2021 – JOLT – Did You Add Value On Purpose?

“If you add the value you will become the brand. Find a way to add more value than anyone else does.”
– Tony Robbins

A player (my term for “client”) shared of her commitment, at the top. . .

of her New Year dreams list, to add value in every interaction with another.

It had me remember a bit of wisdom from the late Buckminster Fuller in his idea of “precession.”

He describes how a honeybee, going after nectar as its main intention, actually causes a side-effect of pollinating the world, so that plants can grow and we can eat.

But that’s not what the honeybee has in mind. It’s just after nectar, and is simply in motion to get it.

Bucky talked about the effect of bodies in motion on other bodies in motion.

So often, we can get caught up in our long-game thinking: Are we fulfilling our purpose? What’s the meaning in what we’re doing?

Bucky’s idea of precession tells us that, if we simply keep moving forward with the intention to add value, we’re actually doing what we’re here to do. . .because we never know, like the honeybee, what positive side effects we’re creating, many of which we may never know.

So, do you want to fulfill your purpose today? Keep moving forward and add value: wherever, whenever, however, and to whomever you can.

Think differently, play better.

February 3, 2021 – JOLT – Can I Interest You in a Monthly Clean Slate?

“If I don’t think about anything and start with a clean slate, in terms of what I have to do, a lot of different ideas come up, and I can think about things more openly.”
– Namie Amuro

Elvis sang “If every day could be just like Christmas”…

but what if the beginning of every month could be just like New Years?

At least, in today’s world, why the heck not? We can use every bit of empowering mindset manipulations available these days, yes?

Remember when the New Year started, just 34 days ago, and there was this overall excitement at beginning newly, afresh with new hopes, intentions and possibilities for a better life, a happier year and a greater YOU?

OK, so 34 days have come and gone and some of those possibilities have been challenged. You may have already even become frustrated at moving those intentions forward.

But, do you realize that you have a unique access to power that enables you to refresh at any moment? It’s called your mind and imagination.

Ralph Waldo Emerson says this about ending a day:

“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.”
How about, for this year in particular, we give ourselves the right to end and begin every month this way?

OK, sure, you can play at the elite level and do it daily too.

Think differently, play better.

Got monthly slate wipe?

January 13, 2021 – JOLT – Happy Hope Year… 7 Day Trial Extended!

“Contrast is the mother of clarity.”
– Os Guinness

The 7-Day Trial of 2021 may have failed, but…

what if it’s exactly what we ordered?

Crummy thought, right? But hopefully we can gain solace from the truth about life that says you have to know what you don’t want to get what you want.  

That contrast/clarity element spelled out in the Law of Attraction philosophy kinda sucks when you’re on the contrast side. But, we all know that life moves in cycles, ebbs and flows, ups and downs.

The good thing about rock bottom is. . .there’s only one way to go.

May all of us begin to sense and feel some upticks as we fully clarify how we want to move forward: individually, as a community, and in our world.

Happy Hope Year! (7-Day trial extended to 30!)

Radically yours,

Got hope year, take two?

“This piece of contrast that you hate is the very thing that you asked for on a vibrational level in order to bring clarity to you. That you want more than life itself.”
