Selfish or Selfless. What's better?

Selfish or selfless? Which one would you rather be known for, your selfish ex or your selfless ex? Well, perhaps we have to look at the relationship between the two. All right. Being selfish better prepares you to be selfless, right? We have to take those moments to do things that are going to fill our cup, that are going to feed us, that are going to ground us, that are going to prepare us for those moments when we can truly give of ourselves. The self needs to be present in both the selfish and the selfless times.

Because if not, if we take the self out of both of those moments, if we aren't selfish because we feel bad being that, and if we have nothing to give in the moments when we were selfless, what are we left with? Take the self out as selfless less. Take the self out of selfish ish. Put those two things together. Lessish. Out of all the words that I have ever made up, that's the one I hope I never have to be. Lessish speaks to the fact that we are neither filling our own cup nor having any worth to anybody else.

So take the moments to fill your cup so you have something to sprinkle all around the world. Let's take a minute right now to be exactly where we are with what we have and to appreciate that. Let this minute be for you. Be selfish right now. Honor your breath and what it provides you. Notice any places that you are holding on within your physical state. Can you forget for your sake, let go. Bring your attention to all that you are and all that you need right now. After even just 60 seconds of being where you are with what you got, I hope you feel a little bit better.

I hope you feel a little bit more ready to serve the people and the passions that are important to you. Always remembering you have to fill your cup before you can sprinkle that stuff around. Have a.
