Mainstream Propheteering ... Prophets seeking Profits


With so many wealth and business gurus out there, how's a person to know what is real and what is not? Today's knowledge campaign trail is filled with new renditions of very old songs but are all worthy of an attentive ear? The problem presents itself in deciding which wannabe prophet we want to follow. True, all of us have a gift or message that needs to be shared but there is a certain level of integrity that must prevail in earning the respect of an audience. And unfortunately our standards for "FOLLOWSHIP" have become somewhat turned inside out.

In fact, it's almost fashionable to be inappropriately popular. This brings to mind the MAFIA. Growing up in the seventies, gurus were plenty and the MAFIA was still quietly regarded as the GOOD BAD GUY. Meaning, it's okay to kill, mame and pass judgment as long as you make some philanthropic demonstration to balance the scales. Today the MAFIA is not what it used to be (the popular clique on the block) but there are other similar social scams out there; some far more deceptive than the mafia of the 70's could have ever imagined. These can be identified in every facet of life; music, education, government, business, spirituality and healthcare. It's called "politics"... I call it "propheteering".

Propheteering is a strategy used to market ideas and make icons or gurus out of great actors and actresses. Little attention is given to the integrity of the message. In fact, they can be singing the same song and consumers are made to believe it is something new. I don't care if we are voting for a President or looking to sign up our company with a business consulting firm promising wealth, we must look at the intention behind the firm. Intention is everything.
Questions to ask:

1. Is there more than one expert on staff?
2. Is the playground shared in terms of promoting the product or is the attention primarily focused on one or two individuals in terms of making the OPRAH circuit?
3. Do company representatives serve well outside of their career pursuit?

If the answer is yes to all three questions, make an appointment to listen to their sales pitch. We don't need anymore Prophets seeking Profits. We need people serving people.

Perhaps I'm dating myself, but remember when the customer came first and was always right?

I do.

LOVE IS A DANCE


Do what you love and the money will come. How many times have you heard that? Often business professionals and executive coaches spend session after session trying to assist their clients in gaining clarity as to what change to make. The key word is "CHANGE". It's the one thing that we all know we can count on and the one thing that serves at the epicenter of love or loving well enough to be successful. Many people often do not get lessons in learning how to love their work, or in embracing their job responsibilities and managing the differences that come with being surrounded by many various personalities. Instead it is something they do as a means to an end. In fact the word LOVE on an executive business forum or an employment site is almost unheard of. Yet, LOVE is everything when it comes to achieving success naturally. Gain that comes naturally, gives us energy.

I can't tell you how many people have come into my office saying. "I don't even know what love looks like!" or "what it feels like!" The truth is, LOVE is not a look or a feeling... it is a movement. That's right. Love is having the ability to adjust, flex and flow in the face of harmony and adversity. It's being able to shift gears, change plans, take over, hold back, organize, stir things up, laugh, cry and even disappear when you know it will serve the situation best. All too often we stand glued, attached and fixated to an expectation or imagined outcome. The result frequently becomes more important than the relationships leading up to the grand finale. Guess what? It's always about the relationships.

Love in a relationship is an exquisitely improvised piece of choreography ever revealing new lyrical sequences that entertain and enlighten our existence. It usually starts out as a soft prelude and as time goes on the steps we take become a reflection of the choices we make. Ask yourself, how well do you move through your life and in the management of all your relationships? If you move well... then you LOVE well. It's just that simple.

LOVE is something that starts with Y.O.U., your own understanding.

PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE VS POLARITY


I came across an interesting article about passive aggressive behavior. I was saddened by the fact that homogenized theories and pigeon hole perceptions were conveyed and that little attention was given to the true nature of the individual. Seems all passive-aggressive types according to popular standards stem from the same pool of unaddressed childhood issues. NOT!!! Passive Aggressive behavior simply means that an individual is more passive in nature than aggressive. Some people are more aggressive than passive. Displays of dysfunction occur when ignorance prevails rather than intelligence and this blatant presentation of toxicity is largely due to the fact that there are few people, places and things that don't suffer from it in some degree or another. Passive & Aggressive are simply words used to describe how natural law shows up in an individual. Unfortunately, words also create opinion and falsify truths that could and would bring us closer to self-realization if we simply took the time to understand the physical world we live in realizing physical law does not subscribe to opinion.

Many people are Aggressive-Aggressive. Most often these types become extremely volatile and destructive when clarity is not present. However, these are the same individuals that move quickly in a crisis and are upfront about the realities of life, addressing them head-on. We should never expect a Passive-Aggressive to behave in the same way. Passive Aggressive types are not volatile even in a toxic state. They are reclusive and often victimized when not seeing life clearly. Clarity is a gift of intelligence. Whenever you are not thinking clearly you are simply toxic and need to dust yourself off before life gets worse. If you would like to know more about the true nature of who you are, specifically your polarity and what electromagnetic potential awareness can do for you, contact YCG and start discovering the real Y.O.U. today.
