Defining Moments: Inner Battles, Priorities, and Leadership During COVID
Because it's not those battles that we fight on the outside. It's those that we fight within ourselves that defines who we become. Very good. And so also you see your priorities if you're about to lose everything. It's like if your house is burning, what's the one thing you run in and grab? Is it your photographs, your dog? I don't know. But you realize you could lose everything if I could just keep one thing. And I don't know, it grounds you. During COVID, there were a lot of individuals that I had extremely high expectations on and they disappointed me so. And then you had other individuals that really stepped up the plate. showed leadership didn't surprise me I always knew they had it in them but really
Following Intuition and the Magic of Science and Spirit
Sometimes I think about falling in love. I believe in metaphysics. I believe in certain sort of things we can't explain and can't control. And so a lot of this stuff, I believe, is just your intuition, your tingles, your sixth sense that kicks in. And so I like to put a little bit of magic dust on some of these thoughts to see if there's any sort of things out there that are assisting me and getting me there, like stars being aligned, in a sense. I believe totally in that, Richard. It's, you know, it's that intuition, that very strong intuition that I had since I was a child. You know, what I haven't shared, it's like, you know, I was in hospital for almost like two years in a life support machine at the age of eight. But when I was born, my parents were told by the spiritual teacher that they used to go saying he's going to be a master healer, he'll go around the world and do all the work that I'm doing now. But, you know, for me, it was a hoo-ha thing. But one thing I always love to learn, it's understanding science and spirit.
