My most used quote these days is: How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.
This applies to all aspects of life. Since I have started paying attention to my self- development, I realized that there are many people out there who are at a high stage of their self awareness. I may have known some of them for a while and never noticed their consciousness and deliberate attitude, but now I see it. And I also tell others who are not yet working on their self development what a fantastic process this is. Time and circumstances have to be right for each one of us to dare to embark on it. And once you do, you notice the changes right away.
Last night at a birthday party of a friend there were a number of people thinking about how they can contribute to transforming societies. The idea of needing to change the current economic paradigm has been around for quite a while. We talked about the Venus Project, Peerby or the concept of Enoughness. I started by talking to one person. Then the next person got interested in the conversation and soon most people at the party were talking about it. That's how eating an elephant goes. Some creative designers and scientists have been calling our attention to needing to go back to basics and redefining the way we live for decades now. Our generation is becoming really ready to embrace it - from trying to live healthier, looking for meaningful ways to make a living, to understanding that they need to change their consumption patterns. And many more people will realize in the months and years to come the need to change the way we live as humanity - many of us disconnected from our environment and many in extreme poverty and no way out of their difficult lives. The trend is growing - the little threads of individual thought processing are being woven into stronger ones and together we'll build the fabric of change, al of us contributing our unique bit to the big puzzle.
I am very grateful for being able to couple my personal development to a growing trend in society. It will be a very exciting journey!
