The Real Deal

You are my profile in courage, my little sister. You are my muse and the most courageous person I know. You are, in fact, my hero.

What does it take to move beyond shame, guilt, apathy, grief, fear, desire, anger and pride? What does it take to give up a position, to be willing and accepting, to smile at someone when you'd rather spit on them? It takes Courage (200), a lot of it! And not the action hero kind. It takes the kind that allows you to intentionally cause love, joy and peace when you are up against it. It takes the kind that allows you to live a life,

inspired.

Hawkins' study reveals that 85 percent of the world population calibrates below 200 energy level points; yes! 85 percent of the human beings in the world operate below the level of Courage (200); they are operating at a destructive level of consciousness and 2.6 percent of the population is responsible for 72 percent of societies problems. That leaves the 15 percent who are operating between level 200 and 700; the15 percent who have caused a breakthrough in living a powerful life.

Hawkins goes on to demonstrate that were it not for the 15 percent of the world population that calibrates between 200 and 700, between courage and love -- human kind as we know it would self destruct; would cease to exist. We would literally destroy ourselves. Consider that you are one of the 15 percent who literally, by virtue of the stand that you have taken for life working--you are one of very few who sustain human life as we know it. No kidding. That is serious business. You should deal with that. Your commitment to have your life work has global ramifications effecting people on the other side of the world. That is the real deal.

Now, I have not had my "fact checkers" examine these statistics and, guess what? I don't need to. The shoe fits! Try it on. How often do you find yourself in the middle of a conversation for "no possibility" with someone and you want to pull your hair out, or theirs. How many casual comments about how "life sucks" must we endure? Those conversations for "no possibility" just won't do, 'cause the world is hungry for a hero.
