You are not your job title.

You are not your job title.
Your job title isn’t you.

It’s borrowed clothes.
A temporary story.
Take it off. Stand bare.

Now what's left?

Your accomplishments.

Similar.
They’re noise.
Other’s applause.

And social identities.
Affiliations, memberships, roles.
Useful reminders, but still noise.

When the story stops.
When all that noise fades.
Something remarkable happens.

That's why, this week, I've rebooted my meditation practice.

To find again that quiet place that’s my truth.
To know what remains when everything else falls away.
To see my raw essence, the core beneath my roles and masks.

Meditation quietly strips away the labels.

I observe clearly.
I silently witness.
I patiently watch.

The chaos.
The wonder unfolding.
The everyday beauty of life.

Meditation isn’t mystical or complicated.
Just having the courage to pause and breathe.
To remember who I am without the noise and stories.

What's really going on

“ … all of us hold on tightly to many things we don’t really have.” This line from Patrick Rhone’s book - This Could Help - got me thinking about our attitudes toward pipelines, relationships, and services.

Think Different

I love it when there's a seemingly Unreasonable Agenda. The Apple Think Different campaign epitomised this. Just look at the change makers: Albert Einstein: Questioned absolute space-time. Bob Dylan: Reimagined song meanings poetically. Martin Luther King Jr.: Envisioned equality beyond segregation. Richard Branson: Ignored business conventions fearlessly.
