What it means to be a successful professional, business person, or human being in our new reality are all open to question. The only thing we do know is that we need a completely new perspective and a flexible frame of reference. What we do as work, and how and where we do it, need to adapt to the massive changes and challenges all around us. Nothing we’ve learned so far has prepared us for this.
To envision a future better than today’s present, we have to form new ideas and connections that transcend the dogmas, fears, and outdated patterns we’ve all collected throughout our lifetimes. Of course, this is easier said than done. This is Life Work, and the essence of Life Works Labs.
Just as everything in life is hard until you practice it enough to make it easy, being a proactive agent of change is something that goes against our egos and conditioned minds - until we realize that there is no other way. We are now at that point.
This is an epic chapter in the journey of each of our individual and collective lives. Where are we going? What are we going to do? What will become of all of this? We are all facing these big questions together, at the same time.
To make any sense of the increasing complexity, volatility, and anxiety of the present era we must dig into our deeper humanity.
Our brains do not thrive in paradox. They are trained to look for patterns, predictable outcomes, and to keep us safe.
With roughly 85,000 thoughts going through our heads every day, it is difficult to zoom into this process. Yet, when approached with a beginner’s mind, a full heart, an able body, and the will of aliveness, we can all up level our performance in the game of life. We can better embrace change and diversity. We can even flutter with the wonderment and joyful focus of a child.
As we all embark on this long journey of rebuilding our lives, how it plays out is up to each of us. How can we bring our powers together effectively to regenerate our homes, families, work, societies, and shared home - earth?
As humans, our ideas become our words, our words our decisions, our decisions our actions, and our actions ultimately create our reality.
Consciousness, Connectivity, and Creativity - the very things that make us unique as humans - are the focus of our experimentation at Life Works Labs.
Our journey is along the pathless path to #exponential humanity.
We truly hope to meet you on it.
