How Are You Great?

ByMatthew

I recently challenged myself to be willing to ask myself and clients: how are you great?

Not in a bragging or self-aggrandizing way, or a narcissistic way, but in a genuine, human way.

A way that acknowledges – and embraces – the perfection and limitlessness of our pure spiritual self, and knows that how we manifest as humans in the world owes both our perfect spirit origins and our behavior.

The best of what we are comes from the perfection that we truly are. How can we access that source, more regularly and have it inform our behavior?

How can we act more like the perfection of our true spiritual selves?

How are we great?

How are you great?
