PERMISSION GRANTED
 
Thursday, August 11, 2022
 
 
Who grants us permission for anything we do?

And why do we need permission, a permit, approval, consensus, etc.?

If we are building a corporation, an organization, or a project – there are many moving parts and countless puzzle pieces …

Following the laws/rules/regulations of our societies, organizations, and governments and obeying teachers and parents all have their place, but our minds are off-limits to all those forces.

Our minds can go anywhere we want.

Long before virtual-reality goggles were developed, imagination allowed us to travel without leaving home and move massive forces without lifting a finger.

Our minds are far more potent than most people give themselves credit for or dare to explore.

There are no boundaries laid out on the ground, no fences or walls, no prison bars, no border guards – we can be free.

So who is free?

Who is using their brain to its full potential in pursuit of changing the world or for putting a smile on someone’s face?
