How do you feel when you head to the office or to where you do your work? If you are like most of us, the answer to that question is, “Well, it depends.” What it depends on is probably what happened or what we were thinking before we walked out of the door or sat down at our computer.
Try this on for a moment: That “it depends” becomes something to focus on. When we do that, we consciously look at what it is, and then, depending on what “it” is, we can shift our energy to a more present, coherent, positive vibration, and that creates the “success” of our day! Wow, really? Yes!
We really can get ahead of all of it by deciding, as we get ready to go to work or as we are heading out the door or down the hall, that this will be a productive, profitable, and enjoyable day!
Whether we enter the outside world of freeways, work and other people, or sit at our computer and have Zoom meetings, setting our intention to have the best day possible is a form of professional enlightenment.
Now, enlightenment is one of those words bandied about by many people in many circumstances, for a very long time. Many have wondered what “enlightenment” really is and how we get there. In the old dying world, enlightenment was only for those most grand wizards and gurus. In the New Reality, more and more of us are stepping into a broader level of consciousness that encompasses what used to be called “enlightenment.”
The word enlightenment in the English dictionary says that Enlightenment was a philosophical movement of the 17th and 18th centuries. It emphasized the use of reason to scrutinize previously accepted doctrines and traditions and it brought about many humanitarian reforms. It is generally referred to as The Enlightenment. This philosophical movement consisted of thinkers who consciously sought human advancement through logic, reason, and criticism. This was at a time when religions defined human civilization and advancement. So the “enlightened” ones shifted from the mythical, religious perspectives to that of logic and reason to think on and seek advancement of human civilization. And now we see this shifting from the Duality perspective to the Oneness perspective; Unity consciousness.
During this extraordinary time of evolutionary growth and profound transformation, each one of us is helping in the advancement of humanity’s evolution by feeding the field with our personal enlightenment in ways we may not be aware of!
And, so, carrying this evolutionary consciousness with us into our professional world expands and grows a new perspective and recognition that the products and services we provide contribute to human advancement, no matter what product or service we provide.
In our new world, in the New Reality, it is all about how we engage in our work and with others. It is about what we bring to the table personally. Our attitude, our attention, our communication style, our coherence, and our love all contribute to the evolution of humanity and our personal success.
Every interaction, every day in our business or professional world, is an opportunity for us to shine our light, en-light-ening all along the way.
Experiencing the realness of enlightenment is the acceptance that we are living consciously. That we are being the change we want to see in the world. It is the present moment impacting every step of the way. Looking at it that way, doesn’t it seem like the key factor to our success and the success of others is our attitude? Not only are those in our family or close friends and co-workers depending on us, but all of humanity is! And it begins with how we feel when we walk out the door or set off to what we are going to do each morning.
So, whatever you do, and wherever you go… shine your light!
