(1) You mean what you say.
You value your time, you value your word, you Love yourself enough to know that every commitment you make—from the time you say you’ll show up, to lifetime vows—is sacred, because you are a sacred being. You say Yes when you mean Yes, and No when you mean No.
(2) You prioritize pleasure.
After years of being hard on ourselves and staying stuck in karmic cycles, pleasure-making is courageous. Pleasure heals. Pleasure makes all of the (seemingly) unavoidable hardships of just. being. here. so much easier. Your pleasure empowers you.
(3) You befriend your loneliness.
The ancient philosopher Plotinus said that on the journey to enlightenment, you go from being alone to Alone. The big Alone is what it feels like to experience yourself as the centre of your Universe. It’s a big job. The upside is that this sense of isolation makes us more responsive and available to connect with the world. By caring for our loneliness we care for others.
