 |
Leaving my ego at the door so I’m not
attached to praise or reward for my work and not overly identified
with any particular outcome. |
 |
Avoiding self-righteousness and
demonizing of others with different political perspectives, so I can
find the grain of truth in their position. |
 |
Being courageous in standing for what I
believe in and speaking truth to power. |
 |
Purifying my motives for doing the work
I’m committed to so I can do it from a place of service and
compassion, rather than ambition. |
 |
Staying attuned to inner spiritual
guidance and “coincidence” so I can be guided to do what is needed at
any given time. |
 |
Praying about how to match my skills
with what is really needed so I can be more effective and more
strategic in my service. |
 |
Taking initiative and being responsible
for my own leadership skills, rather than passively hoping someone
else will do what I see needs to be done. |
 |
Being fully present in each moment,
letting go of old thoughtforms and opinions.
|
 |
Observing with detachment-- to see
clearly and objectively exactly what is going on, rather than getting
hooked into an emotional reaction when things aren’t going the way I
think they should. |
 |
Building the new world, not just
fighting the old—giving attention, energy and support to the “best
practices” and innovative solutions that are solving social problems
today. |
 |
Meditating on what new and relevant
ideas are needed now to help transform society—as nothing is as
powerful as an idea whose time has come. |
 |
Learning to communicate more clearly to
others by using language that they understand—language that is more
bridging, rather than jargon. |
 |
Being respectful of others with whom I
work, developing good relationships with everyone. |
 |
Being willing to work cooperatively with
a team, rather than just do my own thing my own way, as the synergy is
more powerful and effective-- and it challenges me to listen to others
and respect other viewpoints. |
 |
Finding higher common ground in
conflicts, and win/win solutions that are for the good of all |
 |
Becoming more honest, transparent and
socially responsible in all my dealings with people. |
 |
Taking a long-term, sustainable, whole
systems view in order to make wiser decisions that will serve future
generations. |
 |
Adopting a leader who has potential
spiritually, sending letters of support, and meditating for him/her to
help him/her align with higher spiritual values.
|
 |
Examining the deeper, hidden causes of
events—the spiritual forces at work behind the scene, such as karmic
patterns. |
 |
Recognizing there are many levels of
reality intersecting at once—various lessons are being provided for
people at different levels of consciousness. |
 |
Invoking the soul of America and its
higher purpose, and visualizing its altruistic qualities expressing
through our national life and in relation to other nations. |
