You're Invited: Abundance League Thurs. 5/15 @ 6pm

Motivation: 1 a: the act or process of motivating b: the condition of being motivated 2: a motivating force, stimulus, or influence : incentive, drive (from Websters on line dictionary)

Please join us next Thursday, May 15, as Dmenace leads a discussion about how to listen to ourselves -and others - for motivation to pursue our dreams.

In Dmenace's words:

One of my gifts is that I have the ability to motivate and inspire . I also have the gift of gab. I LOVE to talk. Over the past few years I have been paying close attention to how I talk. Not to talk for the sake of talking, but to focus on my message and how I want to say it. Because of this I have found that people are now listening to me when I talk. Because they listen I find the words that come out of me are helping motivate and inspire them.

At the Abundance League my intention is to encourage all of the attendees to start listening to themselves talk. To see what happens when they pay attention to how they talk. We each have the potential to full fill our dreams. Each of us should learn how to talk to each other so we can inspire and motivate one another. Rather then bore each other.

As for me ... I am in the process of developing my skills so I can venture off into the world of being a professional motivational speaker. This is my initial step into this world.

"To burn always with this hard, gemlike flame, to maintain this ecstasy, is success in life"

-Walter Pater

Once again, we're holding this month's meeting at the SOMA Creativity Center (SOMACC), see location info below. SOMACC brings together creative individuals, organizations and businesses aligned around a shared commitment to heal the earth, promote social justice, achieve spiritual fulfillment and maintain economic sufficiency. A perfect site for the Abundance League!

Please join us Thursday May 15th for our meeting. Please come ready to talk about your passions, needs, and gifts (in under two minutes) during announcements so that we can help each other create the communities of our dreams – right here in reality.
