how you can help world peace

You can actually help the world.

In a very real way.

A few months ago, I was re-reading one of my favorite books, A Return to Love, when a line stood out to me. She wrote, “Angry people cannot create a more peaceful world.”

Angry people cannot create a more peaceful world.

And let’s pause for a second here. Anger is often rooted in oppression, and I am writing from a place of immense privilege. So, my white and straight and economically-advantaged and able-bodied friends, this one is for y’all.

If you want to create a more peaceful world, it starts by doing the work on yourself. This is work like:

• Clearing judgments of yourself and the people around you. If you are judging them, you do not have time to love them.
• Removing your self-doubt and laying a foundation for self-respect so that you can move into the world and actually do things.
• Filling your own cup so that you can turn around and be sincerely generous with the world around you.

Yeah. Do those things. That’s a part of your contribution to world peace.

And we all know that I have many podcasts over the past three years that go into a lot of depth and detail on those topics. So, dig them up, and show up. The world needs you to be your best you.

Sound good?

Ready, break.
