The concept of Integrity has been overly burdened, but if we return back to the basics, it can be turned into a powerful tool for self-discovery. Integrity, when applied in specific ways, can be a profound way to recreate yourself by training your brain to react in one way over another. But it requires getting back to the basics and using it only on yourself as a type of quality check - not as a judgment tool..

(Here is the link: https://amzn.to/3rTR29j) LOVE Dictionary: Feeling of strong or constant regard for and dedication to someone or something. Being Loving: A way of Being that takes a stand for and is dedicated to others’ experience of life, including the experience of peace, love, joy, and freedom. SELF-EXPRESSION Dictionary: The expression into the world of one’s feelings, thoughts, or ideas. Being Self-Expressive: A way of Being that gives the self the freedom to be whatever there is to be. It considers decorum, social norms, and what is usually accepted behavior...and then makes its own choice. A way of Being that exists as a passionate response to the wonders of life, while holding nothing back. FREEDOM Dictionary: The power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants; a state of not being imprisoned or enslaved. Being Free: A way of Being that allows every other way of Being and the actions that come from them. It exists in a space where things are neither wrong nor right, they are simply possible. It is a way of Being that considers the bigger picture and works with that view in mind..

An Interview question that addresses the question about us being a social species and needing community while pursuing alignment in our lives. This question gets to the heart of the problems with alignment. We are a social species and we need others - but if we allow those relationships to define who we are and we never carve out a space for ourselves and our own being, then we risk having serious regrets at the end of our lives.. There are two critical and seemingly contradictory pieces of information...Relationships are critical to our survival - in fact, good relationships are critical. However, at the same time, being fully self-expressed and creating a life that is aligned with who we choose to be is equally critical. So, knowing how others trigger you and control you while being aware of who you are can allow you to both build profound relationships while staying aligned...

In this video we explore how our way of looking at time may be mistaken. Many times we look at time like a tree or a rock - because our math and physics are so helpful at using the past to determine, for example, the location of a rock falling into the future. BUT when it comes to conscious beings like humans who can dream a future that never existed, this past-first thinking limits us. So, maybe, just maybe we can be assisted by looking at life via a Future First paradigm. I know many people don't read these, but if you are one of the curious few, then here is a link to a hidden youtube video that I created that walks through some fun science that suggests Future First might be something we should be more strongly considering.. https://youtu.be/V1z3M8dVdY0 If you choose to watch this video - which I do not intend to make public, feel free to write some comments so we can start an interesting discussion. :-)
