Just the other day I finally found my humility. I never wanted to be humble for humble’s sake. It’s not that I was necessarily arrogant in a classical sense but rather in a metaphysical sense.
I realize now that any original idea is not as original as I thought it was and that there will always be at least one other that has thought about, thinks about it, or will think about it and who has done it, does it, and will do it and I may never actually “see” this happening.
I’m known as an ideas person for those that don’t know me well or can’t see that. I come up with stuff even if I haven’t read, heard, or seen it. I used to think I was some visionary — well, maybe I still am. But it’s do to the collective unconcious, spirits, the Creator, and all the people, plants, and animals that I interact with on a daily basis that gift me ideas.
For example, I used to think I had an ephiphany about this idea:
Everything you didn’t have as a kid and everything you struggled with all your life, becomes your mission. Such a simple concept and yet I didn’t happen upon it until 1-2 years ago when I was working quite hard at trying to put together a mission statement just out of my own thoughts. Then it dawned on me as I kept working with it and working with my partner’s that whatever we didn’t have as a child, we want to give to others as soon as we are capable of it.
Below is an example of writing I did for one my Mindlogos clients:

Sally’s Personal Mini Mindbio
Sally loves variety, travel, & conversation. She is socially aware, likes to volunteer , and give to other’s to “fight the cause”. With an analytical and spiritual disposition, she is a pillar of society and involves herself in community service.
Through these personality traits she creates harmony, co-operation, balance, and partnership with others. However, in order to manifest this, Sally needs to find the confidence to lead the way.
Reworked — Sally at 10 years old (hypothetical based on re-word)
Sally didn’t get much variety, travel, or conversation while growing up. While she was socially aware and wanted to volunteer, she wasn’t allowed and noticed that others didn’t care like she did. Others don’t analyze problems like she does or are connected to spirituality and so she feels out of place within her environment. When she grows up she plans to be a pillar of society by being careful and caring.
As you might see what she does now is what she does and continues to intend to do in the future: Give others what she didn’t get as a child! And that is, in large part, her mission.
Sally’s Mission Statement
My mission is to motivate and inspire, justice and peace through other’s new experiences of the world.
Another Example
Jessica’s Mini Mindbio
Jessica loves stories. In a story she can create characters of difference that balance and harmonize. In the past these stories were fiction; however, with her company she creates works of truth. Jessica says, “Life is a story to be unraveled through curiosity and playfulness!
Reworked — shadow side
Jessica loves stories. While growing up the people around her, including herself, were not allowed to be different and that created imbalances and disharmony in her life as well as the lives of others. So she created stories that were completely different from this reality. Jessica also wasn’t allowed to be curious and playful while growing up — things are now different!
Her mission
My mission is to inspire others to be bold with grace. Playfulness, creativity, curiosity, and intuition are the foundational elements to healing and harmony.

Just to mention there’s a lot more to what was put together for these two ladies and it included the use of esoteric tools — how’s that for practical?! 🙂

Anyway…
Today, as I was reading a really important book by an amazing author/innovator on one of the many esoteric subjects I read, I saw him say this: “At the moment of birth, we are each given a specific inner mountain to climb… supporting, teaching, or guiding others who are facing the same or similar issues helps us to progress on our own path. We know this subconsciously thus we often teach what we most need to learn (note from Abella — teachers be humble! *smile*”.
