Consciousness is defined as the awareness or perception of oneself and the world. Every thought, feeling, and action carries immense value, shaping our reality and leaving a mark on the world--however intentional. So when I make the statement that "Consciousness is currency," I mean that it has the power to transform your world--it has the power to change everything from our thoughts to our perceptions to our feelings and emotions, which all culminate into our actions and interactions.


Each moment offers us the opportunity to invest in our consciousness... negativity for positivity, fear for courage, limitation for expansion. When we navigate life through the lens of consciousness (i.e. that heightened sense of awareness), it enriches our lives, as well as the lives of those around us.


In a world infatuated with material wealth, I've always found myself on a journey to uncover something different--something more meaningful... something more impactful. I want you to recall a time when you've felt that there was something more to life, or perhaps that you're meant to contribute something more. Maybe you have that feeling right now. I can't recall a time when I've been without that feeling, and it's one that's only grown stronger over the years. Let's just call it potential, which is defined as existing in possibility... capable of development into actuality. Potential, much like purpose, is not a single destination. It is an ever-growing evolution of who we are. And life is the journey of both discovering and realizing that potential, and those moments will be some of the most fulfilling times in our lives.

In my search for this incredible sense of fulfillment, I've come to the conclusion that consciousness is our awakening to our limitless potential. #ConsciousnessIsCurrency #ElevateYourAwareness #AwakenYourPotential
