I am thrilled to begin this collaborative essay series Seeing, Being, Doing with my dear friend Darren Farfan.
I’ve known Darren for many years now. I always look forward to being in conversation with him as he’s been an endless source of insight. I’ve often come away with a seed that creates a new way of seeing the world and a newfound sense of possibility in it.
I’ve long wondered what it would be like to share more publicly some of the essence of what happens in our private conversations; some of the ideas, some of the insights, some of the transformation. This project is born out of this inquiry.
Central to both of our work is the profound idea that we create both our internal experience and our external results through our perception of the world.
Our exploration will progress through the themes of Seeing, Being and Doing.
Seeing looks at awareness and perception.
Being dives into presence and identity.
Doing engages with action and creation.
Linked by theme, our ideas will be developed separately to offer multiple perspectives. We believe in the power of individual self expression while recognizing that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
Every Thursday we will each share a new essay on Substack. The project will continue to unfold over the next three months, completing at the end of the first quarter of this year, in March.
I make two promises. The first is that what we share will be thought provoking and give you much to consider and implement into your own life.
I also promise is that the ideas we share have the possibility to change your life forever.
We invite you to join us. We look forward to sharing with you.
Loving you so,
Allan
