Imagine 20 people you love to work with – they enjoy your style and skills just as you are now, without you needing to change or improve anything – and you enjoy them as well. Part of this work – as all work of "authentic business" – is to practice believing in the value of your skills and presence, and stepping more into your authentic service-oriented power. Those 20 people probably already in your life/network right now. Draw them forth by writing a heartfelt description of them... You're welcome to comment below as you tell us about them – anything you can tell us is great, their inner characteristics, outer (visible) demographics, their interests, and most importantly – why they like and trust you. And what they believe that you can support them with. No perfection needed here... just write what comes to you. You can always update it later – and likely will :) After writing your comment, turn around and comment on 2 others' descriptions, especially if you resonate or know someone who is exactly like that! :) Just because you reply to someone's comment doesn't mean that you'll get a spot as part of their 20 ;-) but later in this course, if there's still space, and it seems aligned for the time being, they might reach out to you with a gentle invitation to play :-)
My 20 people are all people who like conversation and thinking deeply. They reflect on themselves and the world around them. They trust me because I create safe spaces where they can be honest and authentic. They trust me because I take time to remember who they are and integrate them into the conversation. I ask challenging questions and offer affirmation and constructive feedback. I encourage them to act as peer mentors to each other. They are interested in being themselves and are interested in helping others be authentic too. I enjoy their company. They’re all people I’d enjoy meeting 1:1 over coffee or tea. I admire their willingness to learn and grow and to support others doing the same.
My people are creative and long to express themselves through a variety of media. They are willing to take chances on the road to learning and connecting with something bigger than them. They believe in an infinite energy available to all of us. They see the brokenness of our environment and seek to use their creative energies to heal and transform where needed.
I feel I might belong to your tribe,
My 20 people are heart centred people who sense that they are here to deliver a soul message and live out their life purposes to and in their communities. They are also creative, courageous, loving, nurturing and see that much as it is to serve the world, it is also their birthright and reclamation to joy and purpose too.
Healing comes to them as they uncover what they want to create and live out that vision in their lives too. While life can be mundane, thru these acts of courage and self expression, divinity comes.
That's a beautiful way of describing the healing process Faith, especially with regards to self expression
