Why You Pay What You Do

Why Pay?

When you are allowed to decide what to pay for an exchange, you will base your decision on four factors.

It is my theory that these four factors correlate with Integral Theory that there are Four Doors of Perception, known as AQAL, through which we all see the world.
Pricing AQAL

  1. Your Fairness
    What you feel the Social Worth of the exchange is | Your investment in the relationship
  2. Your Satisfaction
    What you feel the Inner Worth of the exchange is | Your happiness with the product
  3. Your Market Awareness
    What you feel the Market Worth of the exchange is | Your internal reference price
  4. Your Financial Ability
    What you feel the Active Worth of the exchange is | Your surplus that you are willing to share

When you are told what to pay for an exchange, how might it be limiting you from considering all these factors?

What Being an Innerpreneur Means to Me (And Only Me)

InnerpreneurWord

[tweetmeme] I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it again, I did not make the word Innerpreneur up. I was only drawn to it once upon a time ago (early 2007) when I was starting my business.

I saw the book Karma Queens, Geek Gods and Innerpreneurs in the bookstore and despite the fact that I had little interest in the book’s overall themes, I bought it. I was compelled by the term, Innerpreneur, and intrigued by the people it described.

It spoke to me. I connected with it. I didn’t totally understand what being an Innerpreneur meant but I found truth in it.
