It’s worth saying again.  “You matter.”  Then take a minute to go back to Seth Godin’s original post about this.

Seth Godin said it in a June blog post, “You Matter” , and it is short, powerful and well worth printing out for daily review.  I even took it to share with a meditation circle that I led.   Although he doesn’t (as far as I know) bill himself in the spiritual entrepreneurship or conscious business categories, Seth has built a following with his out-of-the-ordinary approaches.  In this case, his  “You Matter”  blog post  expresses the highest spiritual principles aligned with inspiration and motivation that ties in to the magnify your excellence mindset that Judith Sherven and Jim Sniechowski also express in their intimate workshop (Magnify Your Excellence that will be held in the UK this fall) and their innovative Bridging Heart and Marketing event, scheduled for fall now as a cost-effective virtual event.

To give credit where it’s due, Seth’s post came to my attention through my friend KatyBeth at Camp Run-A-Pup.

“The ultimate test comes when you try living from your new purpose.”

–True Purpose: 12 Strategies for Discovering the Difference You Are Meant to Make by Tim Kelley

Enjoy the sheer delight of randomness, but a mindful and intentional randomness that somehow reinforces the process of owning your greatness as you work to live your purpose! Falling into the digital rabbit hole today, connecting with the wisdom of old friends, still trying to make all the digital media connections.  Following my friend’s instructions (below), I came up with the quote (above).

Instructions from my friend Elke Siller Macartney from InspirationU  (http://www.inspirationu.com)

“Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
* Turn to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post that sentence AS YOUR STATUS. Then POST these instructions in a comment on your status.
* Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST book.”

We find meaning in the random uncovering of what is there waiting for us.  Following the above instructions, a kind of    bibliomancy–divination by means of a book, esp. [but not in this case] the Bible, opened at random to some verse or passage, which is then interpreted.” [from dictionary.com]— I have happened upon something that is meaningful.  But is it meaningful because the book was the nearest one?   Yet consider that the reader found meaning in the 5th sentence on a particular random page.  Such coming up with something meaningful speaks of larger purposes and synchronicities and synergies where we all find meanings greater than the sum of the parts through random walks through the nearest book.  Bravo to bibliomancy!
