1
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Imagine its one year from today

2
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and we all agree that we're going to

3
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
come back for a reunion

4
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Not maybe, absolutely. We're all going to

5
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
come back exactly the same group of us

6
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And we're going to come back for a reunion

7
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Only want to share the things that has

8
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
happened in our lives, during the last

9
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
12 months of our lives.

10
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We're going to share what it is we've

11
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
dreamed up when we were here at TEDX

12
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
in October of 2016 and what's happening

13
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
in our lives right now 365 days later.

14
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What would you love to be saying about

15
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
your life? What would you love to say

16
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
in the four areas where humans actually do

17
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
create results?

18
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We live in a spiral universe.


19
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
In a spiral there's an ever upward pole
of becomingness.

20
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
A little blade of grass feels it as it 
presses through cement to

21
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
become more of its self today than 
yesterday

22
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
A tree presses to the edges of itself
to become more of its self
today than yesterday

23
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And humans feel the same thing, 
we just feel a little differently

24
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We feel it through longing
and we feel through discontent

25
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We feel a longing for greater freedom.

26
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We feel a discontent with
certain circumstances and situations.

27
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And if we just keep breathing another
365 days,we will create results.

28
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Because that's what humans do.

29
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Now we create results in four areas.

30
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We create results in health and well-being

31
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You could look at your results in health
and well-being

32
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but what would you love a year from now?

33
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Because if you keep breathing you're going
to have results in that area.

34
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Humans create results in relationships.
Some of them are wonderful,

35
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
some of them are deep, some of them
are supportive, some of them are not.

36
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What would you love 
in the area of your relationships?

37
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Would you love to bring that someone
special in your life?

38
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Would you like to transform a relationship
you are in?

39
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Maybe a relationship is on an auto-pilot
and you'd love to have it go deeper

40
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Humans create results in vocation.

41
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What we do with our time and talent.

42
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Whether we earned income doing it or not.

43
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Because just by our beingness we're doing
something with our time and talent.

44
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Even if we think we've done so many
mistakes and want to go under the covers

45
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What I create that day is "Covers over my
head day in bed"

46
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I don't get to not create out of my
experience

47
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And humans create results in time and
money, freedom or constraint

48
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So if you think about next year when we
come to the reunion

49
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What would you love to be saying?


50
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You know in my calendar the last twelve
months here are the evidences

51
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
More freedom for me and time

52
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
More freedom for me in the economic
freedom

53
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
where I could go where I wanted to go,
do what I wanted to do

54
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but maybe even more importantly
and I believe it is

55
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
actually give to the things that matter
to you

56
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
provide some of the things for those that
matter to you as well

57
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Now...about fourty years ago

58
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I got very interested in transformation

59
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I was getting my undergraduate degree

60
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and I cared deeply about kids

61
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This has been a longing of mine for
quite a while to become a school teacher

62
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And while I was getting my undergraduate
degree I wanted to study everything

63
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I could in the field of transformation

64
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And the purpose at that point was to help
children discover a kind of self-esteem

65
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So no matter what their circumstances,
no matter what their situations

66
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They could actually believe that they
could actually become the person

67
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they wanted to be and achieve the things
they wanted to achieve

68
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I went on a got a graduate degree in
