Do the thing to get better at doing the thing. But be intentional and break it down. 

ABTY is not a pre-requisite or cost of entry. It is the result. But the result of what? Heart - love and devotion Mind - discipline and learning  Skills - practice  Community - service  Relationships - connection 

Raw emotion will find you and how you deal with it will define you - Finch Listen to ep 125 with Damon West to hear his Be a Coffee Bean message

We can learn to be in the moment.

meraki [may-rah-kee] (adjective) This is a word that modern Greeks often use to describe doing something with soul, creativity, or love -- when you put "something of yourself" into what you're doing, whatever it may be.

When we are in states of love, we emit light. This is what that means for leaders.  For more, see Dr. Fritz Popp - biophotons

If you want a collaborative and innovative culture, make sure you're not overly focused on "personal" performance targets. Because given the choice, your people will choose self over service because their "survival" depends on it.
