Free informal Webinar “Meditation, Spirituality & Leadership”

What do YOU think I need to say about “Meditation, Spirituality & Leadership”?

Thank you for all the suggestions you made about future events you’d like to see.

Are you ready to help me make my next program better?


“Part of the problem is that everyone is in such a hurry. People haven’t found meaning in their lives, so they’re running all the time looking for it. They think the next car, the next house, the next job. Then they find those things are empty, too, and they keep running. ….. So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they are busy doing things they think are important. This is because they are chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning. “ (From: Tuesdays with Morrie)

Perhaps our study of leadership has caused us to focus too much energy on the mechanisms instead of the essence – the sunset data rather than the joy, beauty, and experience of the sunset.

But, “the significant problems we have cannot be solved at the same level of thinking with which we created them.” (Attributed to Albert Einstein)

So maybe we have to use a completely different approach. And what could it be? A program on Meditation, Spirituality & Leadership?

What? You haven’t heard of this program? I’m not surprised. Because it hasn’t been publicized yet! And believe it or not, that’s even better news. Why? Because you, my blog readers, will get to give your input before you and anyone else will be able to participate. You’ll get a chance to tell me what you think it should include; which topics should be covered; which questions addressed. And if you give me your input, you’ll receive a “Thank-You!” gift!

Here’s the plan. There will a brainstorming webinar on December 6th, 7th or 8th, 2009 (you decide the date and time). I’ll encourage you to give me your feedback and comments at this event. You’ll be able to tell me exactly what you want to be included, in which format, when, and at what time schedule. I’ll make changes based on the feedback that will add value to the program. And I’ll quote you in the future program invitation.

The first step? Watch this short trailer (1,30 Min.)

And if you can’t make it to the webinar leave your suggestions here at this blog.

Inspirational Thought for the Weekend

“Sooner or later we all discover that the important moments in life are not the advertised ones, not the birthdays, the graduations, the weddings, not the great goals achieved. The real milestones are less prepossessing. They come to the door of memory unannounced, stray dogs that amble in, sniff around a bit and simply never leave. Our lives are measured by these.”

— Susan B. Anthony

Attitude

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of Attitude
on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It
is more important than the past, than education, than money,
than circumstances, than failures, than success, than what
other people think or say or do. It is more important than
appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a
company, an organization, a home. The remarkable thing is
we have a choice every day regarding the Attitude we will
embrace for that day. We cannot change the past. We cannot
change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We
cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is
play on the one string we have, and that is our Attitude.
I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90%
how I react to it. And so it is with you. We are in charge
of our Attitudes.
