Sometimes we don’t know what we value. We sometimes don’t honour where our genius is, and where our real potentials are. And then what we do is we compare ourselves to other people and then think, well, we don’t have what they have. And then we accept less than what we’re capable of embracing in life, and what we’re capable of doing that serves. And then we label ourselves, and then we get other people to label it, so we’re trapped. But the truth is, there’s a magnificence in every human being, and it’s an expression of what their real true values are, their authentic self. And if they give themselves permission to take whatever job they have and ask, how is it helping me do that? People can become engaged, and then they get opportunities and promotions, and they appreciate and they’re fulfilled doing it until they can structure their life independently, maybe as an entrepreneur, going after what they would love to do directly. So either go and do what you love through delegating or love what you do through linking, as I call it. Linking is making a connection in your brain, the associations in the brain between what you’re doing and whatever it is you are inspired by. But I really believe that people deserve to be inspired by what they do. And that if they do, they have more opportunities to get promoted, and they get more confidence in themselves, and they’re more likely to be an entrepreneur, which then gives more job opportunities, and they can do it. So if they love taking care of a house, they love cleaning, then give themselves permission to do that. You know, you want to honour who you are. Whatever the job is, it’s not too much or too little to transform the world. Never underestimate the power of an individual, whether it be somebody taking care of cleaning, or whether it be ditch digging, or whether they’re running a major corporation or our government. There’s something we can learn from every human being and they’re a reflection of us.
