we all start life as �an essential being—�

completely spontaneous and free, without memories �

or associations.

As we are conditioned, �programmed, �

and taught �how to look, how to be, how to behave, how to act, how to imagine, how to feel

and how to think, �our essence becomes submerged

between all the ‘I-dentities’ we take on.

Stephen Wolinski, The Tao of Chaos

Who Am I?

last test.

raise your hand if you

think you are NORMAL.

now raise your hand if you

think…

most other people are NORMAL.

I Am Here.

I See You.

I See You Are Suffering.

I Am Suffering And I Want To

Help. Thich Nath Han

How much energy do you use to��... Make sure you look good?�... Ensure it‘s not your fault?�... Bend data to fit expectations?�... Creating useless reports?�... Blow hot air?�... Cover up bad news?�... Cover thine arse?

Performance �is a matter of choice �

which is a matter of freedom�with the power �

to do what matters �to serve the customers’

purpose. Stephen @LeanVoices Parry
