Friday Reflections

Take a moment to ask yourself:

- What is my point of focus?
- Is that point of focus what I am intending?
- What am I allowing?
- What does my heart say?
- What do I need in this moment?
- What truth is in me that I need to speak?
- What patterns (confronting or delightful) are unfolding in front of me?
- What am I choosing?
- Am I showing up to the group from my integrity?

Energy is. We cannot make it stop. We can work with it from more awareness and in a higher integrity by getting super intentional in the present moment to be in our own knowing (because we’re actively practicing un-knowing). From this presence, we direct our words, movements, and clean intent.

Triggers are awakeners. Allow them to show you. Breathe into any anxiety and fear arising. Get outside into the air. Onto the ground. Into your tummy. Power resides deep in your knowing, and transformation and disruption require this practice and cultivation of knowing from an alternative power source.

Hard word is good work. Rarely convenient. Always purposeful. Never simplistic. Exhausting and invigorating concurrently.

We’re not going back. And going forward takes leadership of a new ilk, architecture, and understanding acted upon in the micro moments, locally, wherever you roam - using skillfulness and courage that derives from a simple principle. Be.

Attend to who are you being.

You’ve got this. x

At Theeo and Theeo Magazine, our writing and open sharing goal is to extend valuable insights and ways that emerge from years of practice and direct application of our systems designing, organisation design, leadership, strategy, and change expertise.

If our work inspires you to incorporate elements into your own writing, practice promotion, or leadership, appropriately credit Theeo Company.
Nicking our writing, languaging, diagramming, and word choices without acknowledging and appreciating your source depletes the integrity and mutual respect as members of the commons.
Consciously citing your sources shows respect for intellectual property, while supporting a culture of gratitude — crucial in an open-source community and beyond.

We hope you feel inspired.

We invite you to share.

We encourage you not to nick.

This is Elevating the Game.
