If you do not know what you value, truly value, your core principles, you can not have healthy boundaries, not with others and not with yourself.
I’ve said it in other ways in the past, but if you value health, then you make decisions to protect your health. You start thinking like a defender of health. You love health. You investigate health. You follow healthy people, and you want more of what makes them healthy. Your patterns shift. Your language shifts. You start to become serious about your health. Seriousness is a sign you are in a position of defense over what you value. Defensiveness is not a bad thing as we are being conditioned to see it. Defending what you love is not just good. It’s imperative. It can even be selfless. What the world needs is more Defenders of Values.
Acquiescence to authority has taken humanity as far as those authorities can take us from noticing or caring about our core values. This is dangerous territory, not just for the individual but for humanity.
I have been looking at what makes this “line in the sand” concept. I have been talking about it. I have been thinking about it. I am seeing how politics and control mechanisms dance around it and finesse it like waves of the ocean touching it carefully to gradually erode it and wash it away.
There’s a flag that’s message is “don’t tread on me.” If you are serious about that, you need to know what “me” is so you know when the tread is coming and where to make a boundary and where to tell those who try to finesse an intrusion to back the fuck up.
I was recently befriended by a creative, young man. He seemed to be struggling, but he had the gumption or misfortune of being an agorist. I only say “misfortune” because it seemed he took to this position as an outcast of society with no where else to go and nothing else to be. He was extremely talented, I believe as a writer or more of a poet. He has a strong way with words. His deal though was that he kept ending up in romantic relationships with a gal who was extremely malicious. She publicly accused him of rape on a forum for a freedom festival. A week later, she came back to him groveling, and he took her back. He thought it was a selfless thing, a good thing.
What excuses do we as humans make for our behavior when we either are out of alignment with or haven’t defined what our core values are? Worse and more personal, how do you trespass or transgress against your SELF when you haven’t placed that value in the GPS destination of your own internal guidance system? Instead of taking short cuts, you end up going in the opposite direction.
The world needs leaders. It doesn’t need a leader. It needs leaders, people following their values and making decisions and taking guidance and direction with the end in mind being something not just valuable, not goods or commodities, but the core value itself. We have had too many people driving the bus. Get off the bus. Set your own course and model this behavior for others. That’s the kind of leaders I am talking about.
I would love to help you find these values in yourself so you can program them into your guidance system and model for yourself, myself and others where that focus can take you and where it can take the world.
Are you ready to be a leader? I have a unique offer coming for the first 10 qualifying future leaders who want to step into sovereignty with me and chase a core value of your own to the glorious elevation of humanity. If you feel that you could be one of these 10 future leaders, send me a message titled “VALUES” to TheSovereignMom@gmail.com, and I will put you on the list to interview for this Defenders of Values team.
I am excited to hear from you. The time has come.
