Three keys, a quote and an invitation
One
Our home, planet Earth, is at a critical juncture when it comes to her health and ability to renew her energy. Mental health statistics show that the same can be said about us, humans, and our capacity to lead and to reach our full potential. In both cases, the candle is burning from both ends.
Our greatest hope for a bright tomorrow is to align and lead from within. Change starts with mindset, our mindset matters, it is the starter of changes.
The good news is, we have the technology, financial resources and scientific knowledge needed to do what’s right (assuming we are pro-life).
Two
Attention is the key to intuition and sensing the world and our place in it. Today, our attention is dispersed and fragmented. This makes it harder for us to engage, relate and receive.
This translates into what we perceive as an incoherent and a disjointed world which we struggle to make sense of. In the process, we become disconnected from the natural world, which we are innately a part of. We become increasingly polarised and forget that we are literally all related, we are brothers and sisters. Our shared history is written in our bones.
Three
This is the first time in history that we, homo sapiens, are the only human species on Earth. This is an evolutionary exception.
So how come we’re not feeling it? Seeing signs of it all around us? Acting as if?
A quote:
“Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect.”Intuition is a form of unconscious intelligence shaped by experience and evolution in dealing with uncertain and dynamic situations—situations for which logic and algorithms are often ill-fitted.”

An invitation
Wisdom is asking the right questions. Clarity comes with presence and heightened awareness about how and to what we pay attention to.
My invitation this week is for you to:
Identify, notice a voice in your community, network or flow of information who speaks from a place of common humanity and the web of life.
Name this person. Thank them. Even if that’s just in your mind or journal. Let them inspire how you use your voice.
Even if you speak from this place yourself already.
Let their words inspire you and notice how this has ripple effects around you.
Thank you for reading, as always, I’d love to hear your thoughts and questions. If you are enjoying reading this, are curious to find out more and think others might be, please do share!
With love & respect,
