Creating from reality


Hey,

Wishing you a great day and blessings.

I'm grateful this morning for being with my family and the delicious waffles with blueberries and cheese eggs Melissa made.

I feel sad because I keep hitting a wall in my creations.

The wall is made of missed opportunities for love-happening, intimacy and collaboration.

The wall keeps me from drinking from the juice of life.

Something else is possible!

Mainstream consumer culture is not reality.

Mainstream culture is another fantasy world.

Reality is reality.

Reality is what is is as it is.

No made-up stories.

No explanations.

No expectations.

I'm hitting bottom about the way I'm creating with my partner and with my teams.

I want to come closer to reality and create with others from there.

What does it take to create from reality with others?

Love,
Jorge Pedret

These are all...

You are carrying seeds of regenerative culture… You are building cool stuff… You are either in the design phase… Or you are actively experimenting with your design… You want to collaborate with others… A support team to help you build this thing… A core team to create a regenerative ecosystem… You’ve learned that doing it by yourself is not regenerative. You might be facing challenges with:- Navigating emotions within yourself and the team - Burnout, discouragement, fatigue - Going in...

You can only be in one of two teams: 1) The looking-good team, or 2) The learning team. You cannot be in both. Learning requires NOT looking good. Imagine trying to learn to play guitar but you're not willing to make mistakes. Learning starts with being with your incompetence. Learning that you are incompetent can be terrifying. It can trigger your box defence mechanisms dedicated to: Maintain the status quo Keep things normal and unchanging Maintain the image you have of yourself Maintain...
