Cause and Effect Moves With or Without You

The flows of cause and effect move events, stimulate ideas, and drive consumer wants and needs because everything is connected. This flow has a powerful momentum, and moves like the multi-dimensional currents in a powerful river. This force moves forward with, or...

We live in a world that is beautiful beyond description, yet most of us only glimpse this beauty occasionally. Why? What if the puzzle of life was that we are surrounded by, and a living part of, what the Taoist called "The Flow of Heaven," yet we are not conscious...

Recently we watched CNN's tribute to heroes who found their soul's purpose in helping relieve the suffering of humanity, each in their own way: building bridges over dangerous rivers for African tribespeople, bringing solar lights to children who want to learn in remote corners of our world, and saving young...

Imagine a world, company or life committed to nourishing every glimmer of wisdom from the cradle to the grave. How would a world whose first priority was seeking and manifesting wisdom feel? Can you see how wisdom would flourish into genius with waves of innovations that naturally lead to abundance...

Sail away from the shores you created for security before they enslave you. Ride the wind out into the ocean of the unknown, and come back and make a report. If you stay on safe shores, you will never discover new worlds. Your old hills and valleys, though familiar and...

Some leaders spend much of their time arguing and persuading their teams of the right direction, and others radiate a humble confidence that attracts people. What is the difference? How do you become a leader who attracts rather than persuades? To achieve this level of leadership, you have to understand...

A distinguished group of thought leaders, lead by Deepak Chopra, met at UCLA's Royce Hall last week to put out the call for higher levels of consciousness. Deepak started by explaining the problems we currently have can be solved by increased levels of consciousness, from the way we deal with...

Living near Orange County California, I have a lot of friends who support conservative politics. They are wonderful people, but seem to be heartless when it comes to political and social policies. They see anything that helps the less fortunate to be socialism, or worse yet communism. Yet if you...

What is the difference between an idle thought and an intention powerful enough to move providence? Some say if you want it to be so, think about or write down your desires, and it will come true. Others point out that it has to be a strongly held thought or...

Prior to the French Revolution, Marie Antoinette, upon being informed that the people were suffering, said, "Let them eat cake," which at the time meant the crusts of bread. It seems to me that we as a nation are moving dangerously close to this attitude about the suffering of our...

The price of paying more attention to our beliefs than the complex multidimensional flows of cause and effect seen in the Gulf of Mexico, our financial systems and in the health and well-being of our people is great. Oil is pouring into the Gulf because the process of regulation and...

It seems to me that when our consciousness combines with the presence of our right brain and the discernment of the left brain, genius is created.

Like an athlete in 'the zone' or a CEO leading an executive team, both presence and discernment grow in an ever expanding spiral...

Mr. Geithner, given the evolution of the global economy, and the position of the U.S.A., how does an American company achieve growth? How do we unleash the genius of the companies we work with? This is the question for you, our leaders, and all of us. Here are a few...

What is real and what is illusion? Knowing the difference is a grail that humanity has been on for millennia. What is the nature of reality and how does it appear different than illusion. The boom that we all thought was based on fundamentals was in fact based on market...

In Roman Mythology Genius was a "guardian deity or spirit which watches over each person from birth." To unleash your Genius would mean to stop resisting your spirit's advice and collaborate with the Genius that has been given to you.

Genius is, as I define it, collaboration with the natural...

In earlier posts, people seemed interested in knowing more about soul and its relationship to life. I am going to share some thoughts that come from my experience, and hope to read about your experiences. If we all go on a journey into the unknown together, we will expand our...

Imagine there is a place within you that connects directly with the formless intelligence that creates a new world every moment. It is the point where the deep light that enlivens us is connected to divine love, like a mother to a child forever. It is our portal to the...

While most industrialized countries collaborate with their corporations, the U.S. government and its companies are deeply involved in ideological warfare. Most industrialized countries provide healthcare and pensions and for its people. Sharing the burden of these social infrastructure services among their populations gives their companies a large competitive advantage and...

Sheryl Crow in her song "Soak up the Sun" says, "It is not having what you want, it's wanting what you've got." Every culture seems to have a phrase that describes a hidden weakness. For example, many intellectuals in Northern Europe say, "If you are happy, you are an idiot,"...

While working with a company which does direct marketing through infomercials, I met Steve Ober, SVP and Partner. Steve directs and produces most of their shows. His success record is far greater than anyone in the industry. Seven out of ten of his shows produce successful levels of sales. The...
