it’s human nture to see the world through our eyes; more to the point, through our biases, likes and values. But nature or not, it’s not the most serving way to interact with the world. Especially when we try to impress our likes and views on others. Do you want the premise of today’s episode? It’s real easy; you know nothing. Neither do I. We have borrowed our beliefs from others, and society. To that point, it won’t serve anyone to expect the world to be like you. Long story short, let people be happy and enjoy the things they like.

Some of the greatest pain we will feel comes from distancing ourselves from the world. Think about it. So many people spend their lives trying to belong, whether it is to one person or a group. To feel connected. What if I told you that you could feel happier, less alone, if you would only seek to find connection…but not with just one person, or someone you know, but with everyone. Today I talk about the effort needed to find that bond with people. But I’ll also talk about the benefits.

How we see our life, creates our life. Meaning, if we see our lives as painful, sad and sorrowful, then that is how we will continue to live life. Conversely, and wonderfully, if we see life as full, loving and joyful, that too is what we will experience. So how do we know how we see the world? I have an exercise that helps with that very thing. Come listen.

We all have an inner dialog; a worrisome voice that points out things to be afraid of, things to feel bad about. For some people it is just a whisper, almost silent. FOr others, many others, it is booming. Today CI5 is CI20, as I talk about ways to turn down the volume of that nasty voice.

There are many days when you might wake up and simply slip into autopilot, not really questioning…anything. Not really looking at your life, not questioning where it’s going or what’s up ahead. Today I ask you a simple question, one that you may think you have the answer to. But before you say anything, I would encourage you to think a little deeper, looking at all the variables.

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m thinking many people crave silence, or at least enjoy it. I mean why would so many people like going to the beach or the woods to relax? Wherever you find silence, it’s safe to say that you find it, and not the other way around. Sure there are quieter places than others in the world, but for the most part the planet can get pretty noisy. Today I talk about the importance of having a plan for silence.

Worthiness is not based on anything you will do. Is that a common belief? Not by a long shot. Society tells us there are many things we need to do to be considered worthy. But you know what I say, you are the one that defines you and everything about you. Such is the case of worthiness. Let’s talk about it.

We all understand that being kljnd is viewed favorably by society. But what does that mean, if anything? As we all know, it will serve us to only acknowledge and appreciate all the aspects of ourselves as we define them, not society. So the question is, what does kndness mean to you.
