Show Notes
Rev. Patrick begins today's talk by discussing strategies for being a leader in our lives, using a framework from Tony Robbins. In life, there are two areas to master: (1) achievement, which is us moving about in the world, building homes, relationships, cars, and jobs, etc; and (2) fulfillment, which we gain through appreciation and contribution.
The middle part of the talk features the parable of the Economic Bailouts and the Monkey Strategy.
To illustrate giving beyond oneself, Rev. Patrick tells the story of Three Cups of Tea, a book by Greg Mortenson, whose personal quest in climbing the mountain K2 led him to begin building schools in the villages of Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Rev. Patrick speaks of the Centre's commitment to support a different local charity each month, by bringing them to the Centre to honour them and support their work.
We are all powerful beyond our imagination.
