[O]nce people rediscover the art of talking together [i.e.
dialogue as interpreted by David Bohm and William Isaacs], they
do not go back. This rediscovery seems to awaken something
deep within us, some recognition of what we have lost as our
societies have drifted away from the core practices that can
make them healthy. Once awakened, people do not go back to
sleep. ~~Peter
Senge

Isaacs]

What
Makes for a Good Fit?
|
Okay, I'll 'fess up here at the get-go. If my #1 dream opportunity
came along, it would look something like this: A
highly accomplished, first-generation tech cherub [or a whole choir of
cherubs!] had a visit with The Ineffable / All That Is [pick your favorite
name] when heshe
was 5 years old and was one of the original research subjects on whom the
aftereffects were based.
Heshe probably got in very early on something like Microsoft stock, or hir
own ingenious, Spirit-sourced ideas have been an international sensation
for 20+ years, so money is never an issue. When heshe sees this project, there's this internal jolt
of delight and recognition that hir next vocational Adventure has
arrived! In fact intuitively, heshe has been anticipating it for sometime.
Heshe knows the tech, financial, and business worlds inside-out and
upside-down; enjoys an elaborate friendship and business network
around the world that presidents and ambassadors would envy; and totally connects with this
vocational vision that owns me!
After we agree this is the most exciting, wonderful thing on the planet
and we want to do this together, hir first official step in taking on this
task with me is to turn me over to hir best money manager, and web-wizz
team, including editors, programmers, PR folks, artists .. the whole 99
yards, and says, "Let's launch this rocket!" Within
virtually no time at all, a five-year budget of more than $1 billion is
finalized and we now have a full-time staff of about 1000 people, divided into more than a dozen subspecialty teams, each responsible for an aspect of the
web project.* We are not just 'employers and employees,' but a
living, passionately committed community gathering LIGHT as we go!
We together live out of that new
consensus reality! As the authors
of Presence: Human Purpose and the Field of the Future*
might say, we are living, thriving in the *U*! [Unfamiliar with
the *U*? See C.
Otto Scharmer's Theory U and Presence.*]
And the rest,
as they say, is .. ahhh, hirstory!
Now that I've gotten that out of my system, .. I mean, who
knows! I do believe in the integrity and value of this work as a world
service, and in the cosmic forces that work with and through us, and that sooner or later, if I just hang in here, nothing less
than the very best opportunities will become the primary mutual attractors
and catalytic agents for this project. And so I wait, not only
with expectation but with anticipation, to meet my future collaborators
and to
move ahead in realizing all that wHeretwoworldsTouch can be.
However this may unfold, I
am particularly looking for the following characteristics and co-creative
support from would-be partners / angel backers:
|
|
A
passionate interest, even a calling, for the relevant subject
matter. A kind of intuitive or precognitive
'recognition' would definitely be a plus! This has
really got to be a major personal interest. It's a work
of the Heart -- Ya gotta love the Idea.
|
|
|
A clear sense of personal alignment with the overall views and direction
of the project.
|
|
|
Professionalism, commitment, and avidity to
see this succeed in all its possible glory.
|
|
|
A facile
and open mind as a co-adventurer and collaborator.
|
|
|
A clearly positive outlook on life,
unhampered by any
sort of negative [e.g.] doomsday-type focus.
|
|
|
Highly
relational ‘people’ person/s and excellent two-way
communicator/s and who foresee themselves involved as active
collaborators.
|
|
|
The
financial means, business acumen, and networking capabilities to develop this fully into all it can possibly
be. My
preference by far is that any/all partners are in it as a life
commitment because they deeply believe in its mission and its success.
|
|
|
Technical expertise and/or the means to
bring into play the necessary technical, administrative and other support to continue
the project's development and long-term sustainment. [By
the way, I have every confidence this web complex will succeed
outstandingly financially, if and as this global Consciousness
Shift thrives, as
has long been foreseen by so many EHEers. See Revenue
Streams Table.]
|
|
I actively, openly seek partnering
with ..
|
|
|
Those
whose own lives have been ‘made new’ by spiritually
transformative experience or experiences, although my final
decision cannot rest on this per se, since the implicit
understanding and regard of partners, etc. may instead be the
result of a deep empathy or intuition along these lines, shy of
actual remembered experience. The point is to what extent
one's lifeviews, goals, lifestyle, and values reflect the fairly
universal aftereffects
attributed to these events.
