What are your SUPERPOWERS?
Another conversation in WOMEN MATTERS
with Tammy Lea Meyer, Gertraud Wegst and Heidi Hörnlein
We live in a world where criticism, devaluation and attack seem to be the normal ways of being together. The present political scene in America is a sad example for that.
Imagine a meeting where everybody shares what went well and what they are good at. What energy is in the room? Uplift and joy, enthusiasm and energy to go and do the things which need to be done.
On the other hand: a meeting where you are blamed for what went wrong, everybody trying to explain and defend themselves, but wiped away by the critical gesture of the authority and the non-compassionate behavior of the others (who hope to NOT be attacked in the same way, when their turn arrives) - WHAT ENERGY DO YOU FEEL only by imagining that you are there in the room, fearing that you will be treated in that way, too?
And now ask yourself: which situation is more likely to bring forth the best in people and the most efficient and valuable contribution? I guess you don't need to think too long:
A community, a business, a society based on respect and appreciation has a huge potential for achieving everything, including peace on earth.
The way things work still in the world, the continuous attacks on the integrity of the other, on his/her values and right of being a full human being is exactly creating and re-creating the disasters in the world which we are witnessing every day. Peace on earth begins with creating self-respect and appreciation inside of us and give it out to the other.
What are your superpowers? This is the first question by Tammy in the video above. Enjoy the exploration!
