The Great Shift

I've seen it coming...maybe you have too. The shift in people's thinking. It's here.

If you follow the thought leaders you know the planet and it's inhabitants are in a state of choas. Chaos always occurs before great change, just like revolutions.

As we head into 2009, it's important to keep this shift growing. It's a positive, feminine shift towards creativity with less emphasis on competitiveness. In the past, we were raised to be competitive and you've seen it on the global front.

Instead of applying for a job and competing against people in the same city, we've had to go against people in other countries.

The competitive nature has worn us down and made us enemies of each other. We've kept our distance, felt disconnected and feared our neighbours.

People are tired of this and crave family and community. People want to work together for the good of others. More and more companies are forming joint ventures with each other. The time is here.

In 2009, focus on positive change, connecting with others, helping others in need and taking care of the earth. You'll see a focus on green businesses, community and friendships. The year ahead will be frought with challenge (we're feeling it now) but end with strength. Out of pain comes pleasure, out of challenges comes growth. We see it in nature, we see it in ourselves.

I wish you all the best this holiday season and look forward to positive change in 2009.
