Free Hugs
Many of you have probably already seen this, but I can't resist sharing it. The Free Hugs Campaign began with Juan Mann and spread throughout the world. This is one of my favorite YouTube videos. Enjoy and be uplifted!
An Inspiring Story from Africa
Anna Pollock asked that a link to this story be posted here. It's in keeping with Van Jones' message to leave the computer and mouse behind and go out where the people are. Magical things can happen in the unlikeliest of places.
Applying our Commitment to Business
Greetings from Vancouver. Thank you all for such an inspiring, stimulating and loving experience at Mills. My deepest appreciation to all the organizers and especially Tracy and John who have modelled dedication with grace and grit to the highest level.
As part of my commitment to Changing the Dream, I intend to weave in our shared vision into as many of my professional presentations as possible. On Thursday I speak to my clients in the tourism industry in British Columbia and I am posing the question – "what would an environmentally sustainable, socially just and spiritually fulfilling tourism sector look like?” Tourism is one of the biggest employers on the planet. We all love to travel. But it can also be very destructive and disruptive. Many of us feel less than fulfilled when travelling through airports – especially at security! I welcome any discussion via e-mail or comments to this post.
I think the question could be applied to any business domain and is a great conversation starter. This approach enables me to sustain and strengthen my commitment in my professional world until the business version is complete.Am helping Kanada and Cori with a one day Symposium in Vancouver on Saturday.
With love
