Excerpt of Barbara's
words from article:
"That
combination of something pressing in you, and the feeling that
the world is in need, starts to activate what I think of as a
deeper inner guidance, a deeper impulse that will press you out
of your comfortable zone, wherever you may be.
"It
will press you out of just taking business as usual into, "I've
got to do something more. I have a deeper purpose. There's something
more occurring here!" And when that comes forth as motivation
to express, create, and participate in healing and evolving the
world, it is an actual personal experience of the evolutionary
impulse!
"It
also comes forth as the feeling that internally, you have more
to do and be than you are doing. It is a combination of the serious
inner need to find and express your deep life purpose with the
sense that somehow you're needed in the world.
"Quite
often we don't know how to serve because usually it's not the
old labels. It's not doctor, lawyer and Indian chief. Nobody wants
to hire you. There is no job description for pioneers who are
drawn to... really, you might say, to saving the world. And so,
those of us who feel that inner impulse say, "Yes, okay.
I'm going to do what I can, I'm going to reach out, I'm going
to read the books, I'm going to go to the conferences, I'm going
to write the letters..." And if you're really working at
it, you will invariably find some others who share your passion.
You begin to experience what I call vocational arousal. You'll
get turned on, and that's the key to making it all work."
Barbara Marx Hubbard (from interview with John Osborne)
