Look Beyond
When you look beyond self-limiting thoughts and restrictions, and constraining patterns ingrained since childhood you have the potential to go so much further than you may have believed – in your career, on the spiritual path, in every aspect of life. With hard work, the right mindset, determination, willpower, confidence you can manifest your dreams. Taste the intrinsic value of success or throttle the pedal of failure on the highway to success. Either way it is a winning proposition.

Food and Prana
In today’s busy world man has lost sight of the essence of food as prana, life force energy. People eat when they are hungry, when they are distracted, when they are stressed. It is no longer the norm that families sit to share a meal together – to break bread. Food has become an addiction for many, and millions of people are overweight while millions of others starve
for lack of basic food. There is no balance.
The more disconnected we become from nature, we forget we are a product of nature, not the product of a machine like so much of the food we eat. We lose sight of the truth that we are connected to the larger cycle of life, and one day, after we die, our bodies will feed the earth, which will create more food to feed new bodies.

Art of Finishing
99% of people start projects without seeing them through to completion The art of finishing is an art rather than a science. Science implies a formula, of which here is none. It is a skill that can be learnt, just as you might learn a new language. It is the ability to deliver a task or project, completing it and tying up all loose ends. Most people can sprint for a short distance, but lose pace before the finish line The art of finishing should not be confused with busyness. Being busy is an activity but is often unfocused or without purpose. It can distract from the finish line You can achieve anything when you master the art of finishing. You will feel consistently happy and satisfied, have healthy relationships, and achieve success

Trust, Belief, Faith,
Everyone has the potential to evolve as a Divine Soul in this lifetime, but only a few will achieve Divinity Power. This is possible only if it is your destiny, and this where your DNA comes into play, the effects of seven generations. Achieving Divinity Power requires belief, faith, trust, and an enormous amount of hard work. It requires detachment, sacrifice, a kind heart, right attitude of mind, and surrender to the Supreme – living fully according to the Laws of Nature and Spiritual Laws

Happiness and Leadership
You have been given this gift of life, enjoy it. Happiness is a choice that begins with an attitude of gratitude. Gratitude unlocks the fullness of your life, turning what you have into enough and more. When you replace the enemies of your happiness with their opposites, e.g. fear and insecurity with acceptance and trust; repression and addictive behaviours with creativity and passion; low self-esteem with self-love, you will have peace and happiness in your heart

Fear and Anxiety
Fear and anxiety are so present in everyday life that we come to accept it as being normal. Yes, healthy fear is necessary. It helps us discern a dangerous situation from a safe one and propels us to instinctively move into action. It is a primal reaction, arising from a danger in the physical world, that has helped man to survive since the beginning of time. There is another type of fear that arises from understanding the impermanence of life. This can be a positive or a minus, either motivating us to grow and make the best of our life, or caught in a cycle of fearing sickness, old age, death, of not achieving our purpose, of losing those we love.

Values and Family Systems
The family unit is the cornerstone on which our society is built, and the foundation of both the family and society rests on its values. Strong family values, based on ethical principles, like compassion, empathy or honesty, provide a moral compass we can use to navigate the world in any direction. We draw on the values we learnt as children, to help us navigate relationships and the responsibilities adulthood brings. In this lecture we explore some of the core values at the heart of living a meaningful and happy life.

Family Systems & Systems Overview
Our experience in our family system, the dynamics and patterns we operate from, will reflect how we operate in every system. Traumatic events, such as war, violent death, suicide, or incest, don’t die with the people directly affected. They echo through time, manifesting in those born in a later generation either as illnesses, depression, anxiety or unhappy relationships. In this lecture we apply a systemic lens to look at what supports the flow of life and love in systems, a way of looking that crosses cultural, religious and societal boundaries.
