That’s what lead you down my “rabbit hole”. You wondered about something that lead your curiosity to here. It’s so like you. Always asking questions and expanding your mind. Why can’t you just accept the norm, the conventional, the accepted? Why must you ask WHY?
Doing it your way.
It’s your thirst for learning, your curiosity at the world, that makes you just that little bit of weird. You want to grow, you work to grow and you do it by consistently exploring your Self and your world. You’re a Cultural Creative (or an Integral, as Ken Wilber coined) because of it.
Ask me a question. Ask us a question. Get answers.
To honour our need to explore, I’ve added a new page to the blog called ASK in replacement of the forum. [...] Continue Reading…
I’ve been talking about Innerpreneuring more and more lately… and it’s got me excited and it’s got me thinking. It’s helping me to focus on my purpose and ask a tough question — how can I best support our movement and the people behind it, AND realize my goals?

Inspiration for an optimistic and growth-filled 2010. Below are excerpts from Bruce Mau’s Incomplete Manifesto for Growth — statements exemplifying his beliefs, strategies and motivations. Enjoy and Happy 2010!
There is nothing that drives optimism more than passion with a purpose. Find your purpose.

You have to be willing to grow. Growth is different from something that happens to you. You produce it. You live it. The prerequisites for growth: the openness to experience events and the willingness to be changed by them.

This holiday season, to thank my clients for their impact on my life, and to make an impact, I sent them a e-card wishing them a happy holidays and informing them that I donated CDN $5 to World Wildlife Federation in honour of them.
