EPISODE #51 – YOU ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOU KNOW.
YOU ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOU KNOW
Even the best need help.
Tim has a bending obsession with getting people onto their lifes mission. Even with the somewhat stomach turning hisotry we have as a species, he still believes we’re no important than we know – and the good we can do.
The real challenge of becoming more isn’t a shortage of ‘what’ or ‘why’ but rather ‘how’. Many have never been shown how. Many are completely out of tune to the rich promise and potential they harbour. Building, making and developing yourself is a really tough gig.
Today, the world is a storm. With distraction as the daily, noise as the norm, and stress the strategy…
Our greatest fear is not ‘death’. Nor is it to be ‘seen’. It is to look back on our lives and question – did we ever get to be ‘seen’.
