Uncertainty ... fertile ground for creativity and freedom

"Uncertainty is the fertile ground of pure creativity and freedom. Uncertainty means stepping into the unknown in every moment of our existence. The unknown is the field of all possibilities, ever fresh, ever new, always open to the creation of new manifestations. Without uncertainty and the unknown, life is just the stale repetition of outworn memories. You become the victim of the past, and your tormentor today is yourself left over from yesterday."

I found this quote in The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success by Deepak Chopra. All of the fear that we hear on TV and in conversation requires a fork in the road. I think we all believe that there is a fertile domain of creativity and freedom and yet, the act of releasing and trusting means we must step away from fear, turn our backs on it and disconnect.

I am thrilled that we are actively exploring how to help folks turn away from fear, toward creativity and freedom ... we call the program PossibilityNOW!

Sometimes you just have to take action!

The Guardian.co.uk paper is my homepage screen. Being in the US, I really like getting my news from a paper outside of this country. I feel I get a more unbiased, global perspective on foreign affairs. I also pick up some interesting tidbits from around the world.

Today's headline: "Australian fights off kangaroo in his undies after animal hops into his house."

This got me to thinking, sometimes you just have to ACT!

Every time we turn on the TV, pick up a paper, have a cup of coffee in our local café, we hear talk of impending doom over the economy. It feels like a giant kangaroo has entered our home and life, catching most of us unprepared and in our undies as it hops through room to room, tearing up all that we have build around us, our family, our stuff and our security.

Like Beat Ettlin, we sometimes have to come out from under our blankets and wrestle with the kangaroo in our room.
