Understanding the tightrope between ego and thriving has been fascinating me for the last couple of months.

I have looked within, I have looked on the outside to learn and to gain wisdom on how to walk this tightrope safely.

The breakthrough for me was when I realized I need to establish true humility and true flourishing in my life at the same time. That would be the safest way to make sure ego cannot interfere. For us humans keeping balance between flourishing and humility can be rough when the ego says “hello”.

I love the way Eckhart Tolle describes ego. Ego is everything that separates us from one another.

Humility allows us to flawlessly integrate into society and organizations.

Humility allows us to flawlessly integrate into society and organizations. It enables us to fully feel happy for the success of others without being triggered by the need for own recognition.

Flourishing brings the full potential of our talents and gifts to life.

Flourishing brings the full potential of our talents and gifts to life. That’s why we have all of them: to truly shine their light.
We are not here to be alike one another. We are here to compose and complement the most beautiful puzzle.

Accomplishing this puzzle requires knowing and acknowledging the abilities and limits of oneself and others. In the world of organizations and businesses, I want to make the case that the qualities of true humility and true flourishing become more important the flatter the hierarchy is.
I even dare to claim, it is the maturity of our personal qualities that define the framework in which we are able to cooperate successfully. Again, a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. So, it is truly everyone that needs to transform.

At the same time, an important aspect is that some of the greatest, most inventive changes and transformations have been initiated by people who believed in their ideas even when it required going against the opinion of the majority.

So, how can we develop true humility and true flourishing at the same time?
How can we make sure to develop humility and flourishing of the highest and purest good?
How can these qualities guide us in our decision making and the path we choose to go?

Transform ego into greatest flourishing and greatest humility to experience true success.

There are valuable change management approaches and techniques that deserve to be considered and applied. But, what better can we do than to connect with the qualities of the greatest humility and greatest flourishing themselves?

I want to take the opportunity to present meditation to you as a tool to turn virtual qualities into physical qualities.

We can invoke the message of greatest humility and greatest flourishing to establish in our physical lives, such as follows:

“Dear the greatest humility I truly appreciate you, please help me to develop the quality of greatest humility. Please transform my ego into greatest humility. Thank you.

Dear greatest flourishing I truly appreciate you. Please help me to flourish. Please support me to live the full potential of my gifts and talents for the benefit of everyone. Please help me to transform my ego into greatest flourishing. Thank you.”

Then you can close your eyes. Calm yourself. Become present.

Think, say or sing repetitively to become the message:

I am greatest flourishing.
I am greatest flourishing.
I am greatest flourishing.
I am greatest flourishing.

I am greatest humility.
I am greatest humility.
I am greatest humility.
I am greatest humility.

All ego transforms into greatest flourishing and greatest humility.
All ego transforms into greatest flourishing and greatest humility.
All ego transforms into greatest flourishing and greatest humility.
My ego transforms into greatest flourishing and greatest humility.”

Continue as you wish.

Close with “Thank you.”

Developing true flourishing and humility is a continuous process. You might want to remember and do this practice whenever it comes to your awareness.

I remember when I first started to chant “I am greatest humility” how resistance raised up within me. Don’t be surprised if you experience a similar reaction. Blockages might show themselves before they transform.

Greatest humility and greatest flourishing together can lead to true self-fulfillment.
In business they are powerful management and leadership qualities and can definitely help our society to move to the next level.

Easy to read, harder to do, possible to achieve, most definitely worth striving for. Let’s do it!
