Deep personal intention beyond the individual
Posted by ICS respondent on October 17, 2007
Deep, personal intention to go beyond ego for the sake of the whole -commitment to live one’s life for the greater good, regardless of the sacrificial implications for oneself -humility, which means a recognition of the limitations of one’s own knowing -willingness to embrace uncertainty -capacity to comfortably engage complexity for sustained periods of time -courage and autonomy to go against the grain and voice disagreement regardless of the personal implications -ability to be both fully autonomous and surrendered to the collective -ability to embrace multiple perspectives without losing one’s own
