“When you decide to change your status signaling from things like beauty, power, and material achievement, to things like integrity, competence, and helpfulness.”
One of the fundamental recognitions in all real spiritual traditions is that everything moves within us and without us because of 3 forces aligning.
It’s said in many, many ways. My little brain understands it as: in All Things, Great and Small, there is an Ego-actor incentivized to act, there is the effect/response of the thing acted upon, and there is the Actualized Result (which is so often mis-identified & misunderstood, because it must be an integral part of the first two aligning correctly so that it’s not simply a mis-fire of the first two).
So while I get I sound like some spiritual rando on the Nostr-web, it’s fascinating to me that you used 2 examples of that understanding in one sentence. Just dropping into this convo to say that speaks to me.
Appreciate you, Lyn Alden.
