What’s important to you? Do your actions mirror that?

Just look at your actions. Words are cheap. Only what you do counts, only what you do testifies about what is important to you.

It seems that being right, looking good, avoid domination of anyone or anything, including your own word, hoping, expecting the impossible… etc, etc, has been really important to you.

One of the people who have inspired me for many years is Werner Erhard, the founder of the est training.

What did he do?

He had hundreds of projects at different stages of development. Some were just ideas, others were ready to run on their own without much input from him.

What he did is this: he “injected” some energy, with some action, into each of them, at least a few times a week.

Tiny actions. None taking longer than two minutes of his time. A short phone call, an idea jotted down, tiny actions.

The demands suggest urgency, the demanders’ tone of voice suggest urgency… but nothing is urgent!

Nothing needs to get done in that same minute, unless it is a broken water main, or a fire.
