Clearlight Evolution Unconscious patterns limit us, undermining relationships and performance. We dissolve the patterns. Values are the essence of relationships.

WE HELP PEOPLE WALK THE TALK, EMBODY THEIR VALUES TO ENJOY A MEANINGFUL LIFE WITH FAR LESS STRESS. They underpin a meaningful, fulfilling life. But Self knowledge is the foundation of all there is to life. Here's why we focus on relationships: we've proven the better the relationships, the better the results. Specifically, I led and co-authored the world's first research to quantify the link among leadership, organizational culture and performance. Key findings:

- Culture drives results
- Leaders drive culture
- Culture plays "follow the leader"
- Leaders must "be the change" they want to see in their organizations

In other words, leaders and their teams must walk the talk, and embody the values that inform the organization. As a result, relationships and results flourish. We would welcome the chance to help you bolster relationships and results.

FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION

One of the most challenging teachings when working with leaders of organizations or elite athletes (anyone in reality) is this: your results in life are not up to you.

Recently I drove from Canada’s east coast to my old stomping grounds in Toronto, Ontario. Part work and part other obligations and plans beckoned.

But life and its Creator had other plans.

Immediately upon arrival in Toronto I ran ten km, part of my training for an upcoming, 50 mile, ultramarathon. Felt great!

But here’s where my plans quickly became subservient to other-grander?-plans.

Overnight all hell broke loose. Sleepless and very ill I drove myself to the hospital, and within four hours I was on an operating table to repair a ruptured appendix and sepsis.

Six days later I emerged from hospital free of both. A strange shot of energy arose after my escape, so I celebrated Canadian Thanksgiving running up Blue Mountain and its beautiful trails in Collingwood, Ontario, a few hours north of Toronto.

So what does ancient wisdom instruct? Life is funny, weird, unpredictable and beautiful and has its own mysterious “algorithm” that ensures a whole world.

It is wise to make plans, but hold on to outcomes lightly because they are subject to change depending on what the whole needs.

To manage that unpredictability, universal values are required to avoid resisting life as it is-and not as we wish it.

Among them are acceptance, accommodation and dispassion (all require far more definition than offers here).

By all means make plans: but it might be worthwhile first to know how life works, what its plans are, through the study and practice of self knowledge-to know what it means to be fully human.

THIS PRECIOUS LIFE

The other reminder I received was this: life is precious. Just the chance to breathe, to witness nature, to touch a blade of grass, to tap the trunk of a tree while running past it, to hear children squeal in delight and see parents’ smile, to see dogs run after sticks and stones, these are the priceless riches in life.

Value yourself. Value others.

Learn the ways of a life in harmony with how it all works.

FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION

Pleased and affirmed to see a wonderful, former client of mine, a world leader in “high performance”added “ancient wisdom” (self knowledge) to his offering as an essential ingredient to bolster performance-in life, at work, or as an elite athlete or leader.

Self knowledge-to know what it means to be fully human-is the foundation for a life well lived. It underpins all performance-and all life.

Perhaps more importantly, it is essential for good mental health as well as conscious, constructive and contributive relationships within and without.

Self knowledge is the context that provides meaning, purpose and fulfilment in life. All else is content.

FOR YOUR KINDNESS
ON KINDNESS DAY

Each day, millions of people go unseen, unheard, unvalued.

On world kindness day, let’s reverse that. Today and far beyond today.

(This may require the surrender of screens, distractions, busyness, and engage new levels of listening. Listening to understand. Listening with heart. Listening to contribute to another - our empathic listening is a great gift to others)

NEW SEASONS

This city boy is still learning the ways of ocean life. Including when the brave, tenacious lobster fisherpeople start their season.

It is common to see boats return to port surrounded by hungry gulls, frantic for scraps. It's quite a parade of nature in action.

FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION

Warren Buffet writes his final investors’ letter. Here’s the last paragraph:

“I write this as one who has been thoughtless countless times and made many mistakes but also became very lucky in learning from some wonderful friends how to behave better (still a long way from perfect, however).

Keep in mind that the cleaning lady is as much a human being as the Chairman.”

FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION

~The real climb~

What is wealth, when all is said and done?

(The following is an excerpt from a New York Times article covering broadcaster Piers Morgan's interview with tennis great Novak Djokovic)

"Morgan asked Djokovic how he would like to be remembered. He cited Nikola Pilić, the Croatian player and coach whom he has long called his “tennis father” and who died in September."

“The human connections that he (Pilić) has left behind and established throughout his life and his career,” Djokovic said. “How he touched people’s hearts who were not just there at the funeral, but at the tennis club, post-funeral. … The way people talked about him, it was not about tennis and what he has achieved as a player, as a coach, who he has coached.

It was about who he was as a person, how he conducted himself with people, how he changed the lives of young people or anybody who he has (been) coming close to.

That’s how I want to be remembered.”

Wealth beyond measure. Wealth that endures.

FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION

~AN INVITATION TO LIFE FULFILLED~

“Do not love half lovers

Do not entertain half friends

Do not indulge in works of the half talented

Do not live half a life

and do not die a half death

If you choose silence, then be silent

When you speak, do so until you are finished

Do not silence yourself to say something

And do not speak to be silent

If you accept, then express it bluntly

Do not mask it

If you refuse then be clear about it

for an ambiguous refusal is but a weak acceptance

Do not accept half a solution

Do not believe half truths

Do not dream half a dream

Do not fantasize about half hopes

Half a drink will not quench your thirst

Half a meal will not satiate your hunger

Half the way will get you no where

Half an idea will bear you no results

Your other half is not the one you love

It is you in another time yet in the same space

It is you when you are not

Half a life is a life you didn't live,

A word you have not said

A smile you postponed

A love you have not had

A friendship you did not know

To reach and not arrive

Work and not work

Attend only to be absent

What makes you a stranger to them closest to you

and they strangers to you

The half is a mere moment of inability

but you are able for you are not half a being

You are a whole that exists to live a life

not half a life”

― Gibran Khalil Gibran

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS

If you’re lucky enough to be at the IKEA parking lot on a Friday night in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada (yes, I am having a wild night) then you will witness this.

As usual my pic taking is nothing compared to the brilliant moon strangely fragmented by wafting clouds.

FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION

"The logic of worldly success rests on a fallacy: the strange error that our perfection depends on the thoughts and opinions and applause of other men!

A weird life it is, indeed, to be living always in somebody else's imagination, as if that were the only place in which one could at last become real!"
