<p>While scrolling through Instagram, I came across a beautiful posting by the <a href="https://www.instagram.com/onbeing/">On Being Project</a> outlining six &#8220;grounding virtues&#8221; on how to live a good life. I squirreled them away to share with you all at some later date when the time felt right.</p>
<p>That would be now.</p>
<p>Given the turbulent and transformational times we are living in right now, these guideposts could not be more fitting, or timely. Like a beacon of light piercing through dense fog showing a way out of darkness, they feel even more like ballast to me now – the <strong>steadying reminders we need to navigate the bumpy waters of change.</strong></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what they say:</p>
<blockquote><p>What we practice, we become. These six “grounding virtues” guide everything we do:</p>
<p><strong>1. Patience:</strong> A spiritual view of time is a long view of time — seasonal and cyclical, resistant to the illusion of time as a bully, time as a matter of deadlines. Human transformation takes time — longer than we want it to — but it is what is necessary for social transformation.</p>
<p><strong>2. Words That Matter:</strong> The words we use shape how we understand ourselves, how we interpret the world, how we treat others.</p>
<p><strong>3. Adventurous Civility:</strong> Civility, in our world of change, is about creating new possibilities for living forward while being different and even continuing to hold profound disagreement.</p>
<p><strong>4. Humility:</strong> Spiritual humility is not about getting small. It is about encouraging others to be big. It is not about debasing oneself, but about approaching everything and everyone with a readiness to be surprised and delighted.</p>
<p><strong>5. Generous Listening:</strong> Real listening is powered by curiosity. It involves vulnerability — a willingness to be surprised, to let go of assumptions and take in ambiguity.</p>
<p><strong>6. Hospitality:</strong> Hospitality is the creation of an inviting, trustworthy space — an atmosphere as much as a place. It shapes the experience to follow. It creates the intention, the spirit, and the boundaries for what is possible.</p></blockquote>
<p>I especially like #1: &#8220;Human transformation takes time — longer than we want it to — but it is what is necessary for social transformation.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>If you could use a little assistance in cultivating these virtues</strong>&#8230;</p>
<p>taking the long view, changing your perceptions, opening to new possibilities, embracing detachment, inviting surprise and wonder, growing your listening (and seeing) skills, creating spacious boundaries&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; <em>and</em> if you are willing to give yourself a year to do so&#8230;</p>
<p>I might recommend my most recent <strong>book, </strong><em><strong><a href="https://www.spaceclear.com/a-year-for-you/">A Year for You</a></strong>, </em>and/or my <a href="https://www.dailyom.com/cgi-bin/courses/courseoverview.cgi?cid=903&amp;aff=&amp;co="><strong>online course at DailyOM</strong></a> on which the book is based. These resources will give you the easeful guidance and tools to live well, simply be&#8230;</p>
<p>and find your way home to you.</p>
