5 Simple Lessons To Benefit Humanity Now

Benefit Humanity Now Through 5 Simple Lessons

You’re probably experiencing the tumultuous energy in the world today. There isn’t a single person who isn’t affected. There’s a lot of humanity out there. Everyone at varying frequencies and at various points along their own path. That means everyone is dealing with the events and corresponding energy differently. You may be struggling mightily or perhaps you’re able to see the bigger picture. Either way your heart, skills, and unique gifts are needed. At least one person or many, need your light. You are already assisting humanity and are doing so in small and large ways every day. Can you see this? Can you grow it and take it to new heights?

Marrying Your Spirituality with Action

Marrying Your Spirituality with Action

Allowing your own experience requires confidence, letting go of caring what others may think, and instead be a stand for the light you practice so hard to bring to your life experience.  “We’re all in this together” is, in part, about being there for others.  “We’re all connected” is more than a woo-woo phrase.  Let’s do our part to honor our connectedness.  To no longer stand by while injustice, inequities, abuse, and corruption exist.  If you believe injustice, inequities, abuse, and corruption are not personally affecting you, they are affecting someone.  And it’s that someone that you don’t personally know but are still connected to.   So in a sense, it is harming you personally as well.  When you look the other way and trust that it will all work out, you know in your heart that something is not working now for someone, somewhere.

What your part in this is, is for you to discover.  You may discover your passion and voice and realize that standing for peace and love means taking beneficial action. And how that shows up for you is as individual as you are.  You get to decide.

I’m not suggesting upping your game on social media.  This isn’t about getting people to agree with you.  It’s about becoming who you know you really are and sharing your authentic self.

After the fun radio interview we took a selfie to remember the moment

My First Radio Interview

How exciting! I’ve never been on the radio before. My first radio interview was quite an experience. The more I stretch myself out of my comfort zone the more fun and interesting experiences I have. It also taught me to let go of trying to be perfect. First of all, that’s impossible. And, second, it would mean watering myself down for fear of saying something stupid. And then why show up at all? When I’m more genuinely me that’s when people tend to connect.

We're all in this together

We’re All In This Together

On the one hand, we’re all different from each other. Each person is wonderfully unique. However, we all share a common experience and that’s the experience of life. Everyone has their ups and downs. But on our uniquely individual paths perhaps we can remember to collaborate and cooperate with each other. Perhaps we can learn to be less judgmental. What’s that quote? “You can’t have compassion for someone you wish were different.”

Two women in a meeting

When I Cringe I Pay Attention

Do you ever shrink from speaking up for your opinions? It’s almost comical how I hold back from being myself for fear of offending someone. Even in a business relationship where two people benefit from an honest dialog I find myself holding back. Here’s how listening to myself on a conference call illustrated just how much I put up a phony facade. Yuck! No more! It’s much healthier and more respectful to the other person to be our honest selves. Like me. Don’t like me. At least I’ll be genuine and you’ll like or dislike the real me.

Perfection is Most Elusive

Perfection Is Most Elusive

Honk if you don’t love parties. I don’t. I like them better than I used to but usually, I wish for a little scheduling conflict to show up so I can’t attend The Party. If it’s something I can’t get out of or have decided to push through my discomfort, I actually show up. There’s no telling how I might show up. I could be quiet, which is my old go-to. Or, I might talk a lot out of nervousness. When I used to drink socially I’d be sure to have one or two to get through the party. Sometimes I insert foot into mouth. Now that I’m more consciously intuitive I feel some people’s energy and that’s a whole new complication.

One of my life lessons and there are many, is to just be me and let go of concerning myself how others might process me. When that happens I find myself relaxing and actually enjoying the party. And if I’m not enjoying myself? I remind myself there’s nothing wrong with being an introvert and wishing I were home or on a woody path, or out on our sailboat for the night stargazing. I don’t have to apologize for what I like and don’t like. It’s time to stop feeling like I have to fit into what I feel society wants from me and instead just do whatever I want.

Living Intuitively Is Easy

Living Intuitively Is Easy

Living intuitively sounds all woo-woo but it’s as simple as living with more self-awareness and from ourselves. The more we do this the more aware we become. We have our very own internal guidance system if we just listen to it. It will never steer us wrong. It doesn’t mean we won’t decide to take a different tact and wish we hadn’t. But we can get back on track faster by paying attention to what we’re being shown.

There’s a desperate desire for more love and peace in our world. But all it takes is deciding to be the vibe you wish to experience. Desire more love in the world? Be loving.

Adventure is Not Outside Man; It Is Within

“Adventure is not outside man; it is within”

For too long I lived a life in the way I thought others would approve. I moved to New York City and began my career in advertising. It didn’t take too long to realize that career would never fulfill me. And yet I stayed. Eventually transitioning to marketing and ending my career after being employed by several internet companies. While living in New York City felt like an adventure, my life still felt flat. I had to learn that true adventure, for me, comes from within. Now I’m pursuing my own dreams and ideas and acting on them to bring them to reality. That’s adventure to me. Taking vacations and traveling is nice but becoming more me, emotionally and spiritually, is my true adventure. Creating what I’m excited about, fulfills me more. That’s me setting off for parts unknown. And I don’t need a plane ticket.

Stepping Up To Public Speaking

Stepping Up To Public Speaking

When I began looking into what my purposeful work might be, my intuitive guidance suggested I speak to small groups. What?! This to me was a huge stretch. They never steer me wrong so I did. I started to speak to meetups and I joined a Toastmaster’s group for practice. Everyone’s advice and pep talks around this fear are pretty much worthless. P.S. you are not helping by telling me how confident you are as a public speaker. Just sayin’. However, when I look at why I have this fear then I can work on limiting self-beliefs and start to kick them to the curb. In the meantime, imaging the audience naked just does not work. Nor does winging it.
