“The
soulfulness you embody and express from moment to moment
is the
single greatest measure of your success as a human being.”
- Rob Brezsny
If you're not in it for the money
you're often called idealist and not really taken seriously.
It's
clear that the more money one makes the more respect and admiration
he/she will recieve, looked upon as one who has made it, who is
really successful. Even if the money making cause big damage to
the environment and/or comes from producing a
useless, unhealthy and maybe even dangerous product. And even if the so called successful person is totally stressed out, burned out and
worn-out along the way to his/her so called success.
The current definition of
success is mirroring the values of our society: Profit,
material standard and consumerism
Maybe it is time to change that
definition? I definitely think so, and that's for two good reasons: One; To restore the environment and Two; to uplift the human experience, our health and sense of connection.
