Word(y).

Experience multiplied by time almost always equals some kind of understanding.

Talk to someone decades ahead of you.

Ask them anything.

Ask them any question.

It’s likely their response will be brief and yet full of flavor and light.

The more one knows the less they typically say.

The opposite of this is true as well.

Can you feel the shift?

Contract work is being replaced with connection creation.

Logic is melting into love.

Mathematics is losing press to meaning.

Deals are becoming points of delight.

And the best…

“What’s your poem?” > “What’s your point?”

You won’t believe the name they’re going to have for the most savvy business and thought leader(s) of the future….

Human.

Transformation

Before you label it good or bad…

…before you critique it as right or wrong…

…before you define ‘them’ and ‘those’ as in or out…

…or before you grant yourself the freedom to judge – give yourself the opportunity to just be.

Now you can be with the moment.

Now you can be in the moment.

Let the moment work on you before you work on it.

This is the art of allowing.

This is how one becomes available to what life is ushering forth on your behalf.

Life just happens to be woven and composed with the purposes of transformation. We see it everywhere if we will only stop, look, and acknowledge.

Just ask the trees or the person(s) you most admire.

You’ll see their branches, but they’ll tell you stories about their leaves.

Intention(s).

Music is never an accident.

It’s the byproduct of intention(s).
