I’d like to think that in my last several years, I have become increasingly coachable and open to being contributed to- and that might be true.

I do have preferences and qualities that I need to see in folks whose stated desire to provide leadership for others sometimes occurs as something else.

1- Is this person actually actively engaged in their own fulfillment- or is he/she all about survival or tolerating circumstances?

2- Is this person projecting his/her beliefs onto me that are rooted in scarcity or fear?

3- How is he/she listening to me? Is his/her ability to listen to others created out of discovery or defining?

For me, integrity on the most basic level is always about holding an empowering context. Being right is about being attached to an opinion.

I’ve chosen to associate with leaders whose willingness to investigate their own perceptions and experiences are reflected in their own emotional, spiritual and participatory evolution.

I choose to embody that as well.

I choose to listen from discovery.

I choose to listen from freedom.

Sounds like a plan.

Namaste, and away.
