Dear Paul,
A couple of weeks ago, during our staff meeting, we talked about the importance of mentors and enlightening materials that literally pick us up, rotate us, and then propel us on our conscious journey.
In my case, it was
Conversations with God, Book 1 by Neale Donald Walsch.
I met the God of my understanding in this book and subsequent
Conversations with God books: a God who is benevolent, not malevolent, and a God that can always be loved and never feared.
It reminded me of my days as a boy when I marveled at the body I was given, the Earth that was given as a gift to me and the collective, and this incredible thing called ‘life’ that includes so many loving and heartfelt moments.
I loved God for the presents I was given and wanted to be close to Him/Her always.
During our staff meeting, others on the team shared stories of a third-grade teacher who made all the difference, a father, a mother, a spiritual visionary, and an important book like
A Return to Love by Marianne Williamson.
In each case, the person or the material is what Buckminster Fuller described as the ‘trim tab,’ something that literally turns our whole life around in a short space of time.
Of course, a trim tab is the tiny surface at the edge of the rudder. Bucky Fuller said, “Just moving the little trim tab builds a low pressure that can pull a mighty ship around with almost no effort at all.”
At this time when our journey into conscious evolution is so important—for us personally and for the planet—perhaps there is nothing more important than mentors and materials that support
this process.
How about you? Who or what was
your trim tab, propelling you forward on your conscious journey?
Was it a book you read? A father, mother, teacher, friend or co-worker?
Who inspired you? I’d love to hear how this happened for you.

We can be grateful for the mentors and materials that have come into our lives to accelerate our conscious journey.
And we can review how we pay this forward to support others on their conscious journeys.
Some write books about their transformation or create classes, workshops, summits or consulting practices. All of these things can support and inspire, but is there another, easier way?
I believe there is something each of us can do that in many ways is
less work and even more powerful.
We can live a conscious lifestyle and be very honest with ourselves and others about what is working and what is not.
We don’t need to proselytize.
Simply engaging in a daily practice involving inner journey, breathing from this space, and expressing from this space is very, very powerful.
Grace enfolds us. People can feel it.
We don’t live this way so that people will comment. In fact, they may or may not. But
they
will notice, and the noticing will cause them to consider what it might feel like to live in a similar manner.
Slowly, but surely, others will dabble in their own inner practice and, at some point, many will go all in.
Why?
Because it feels really good to live in grace and peace.
So… Let’s be a trim tab. Let’s live consciously and be forthcoming with others about our conscious lifestyle.
In service,
Steve
