Transcript

Undress for success.

I want you to recall a time either in your childhood or the recent past when you dressed up as a character.

It was fun because we knew that how we dressed was not really us.

We were playing,

Acting,

Play acting,

Totally free of all seriousness.

We played,

We dressed up,

We connected and we played for no other reason than just play.

And so it is when we grow up,

We dress our being,

Our self with images,

Concepts and ideas like nationality,

Gender,

Profession,

Position,

Clan,

Etc.

But this time we believe it.

We think we are the clothes we wear,

Hence the reason we take it all so seriously.

And it's that seriousness that drives our incessant activity to stay dressed as we become human doings.

And that is what stops us from connecting with our authentic self as a human being.

And the first purpose of any being can only be one thing.

And that is to be.

Not to do,

But to be.

If we are in our true state of being,

Not dressed by any false concepts about who or what we are,

Then all action that flows from that will be shaped by the highest intention of our true nature,

Which is love.

We are love.

And those actions that stem from that love will always create and sustain balance within the context of our life,

Which is relationship.

Thank you.

Love that Undress for Success analogy! So sad how things get so serious and distracted as an adult where we lose sense of play... Esp as one unable to have children... But my dogs and donkey do encourage that forgetting of seriousness and living vicariously they their silliness and the laughter they bring. Thank you
