Hero

The word Hero is an ancient Greek word.

Etymologically, the word hero doesn’t mean “killer of bad guys” or “tough guy” or anything like that it. It means “PROTECTOR."

A hero has strength for two. And, very importantly, a hero is willing to do the HARD work to HAVE that strength for two.

And, do you know what the secret weapon of the ancient hero was?

LOVE.

It’s LOVE that fuels our commitment to DO that hard work to HAVE that strength for two. It’s LOVE that gives us the COURAGE to be willing to act in the presence of fear. It’s LOVE that gives us the Self-Mastery to do what needs to get done whether we feel like it or not.

And… If you haven’t noticed, our world needs Heroes today more than ever before.

We’re not just recovering from the effects of a global pandemic with COVID-19. We have global pandemics of DEPRESSION and ANXIETY. Of chronic diseases like CANCER and DIABETES. We have global pandemics of POLITICAL POLARIZATION and SOCIAL INJUSTICE.

And, you know what? The ONLY possible way we’re going to rise up and conquer these challenges is if WE all rise up and show up as the best, most heroic versions of ourselves.

Again: Our world needs Heroes TODAY more than ever before.

To put it directly: We need YOU to be a HERO.

To put it even more directly: YOU ARE A HERO. We just need you to show up and act like it.
