Hi Stewards,
In recent conversations with some of you, I've noticed how most people either have the desire to start or are already running personal projects. I think that’s extremely valuable, not only for the animals and the vegan movement, but also for us as individuals seeking to grow and make an impact. This is what stewardship is about.
I do have personal projects beyond VeganMen, and I’m constantly looking for ways to learn, to grow, and to overcome resistance and barriers so I can continue taking daily, small steps forward.
I think this space gives us a great opportunity to support each other and share our experiences.
Under this post, I’ll be sharing daily reflections, in the comments, that are helping me move through my days. I hope that they might help or inspire others to keep moving toward the future they envision.
I strongly believe that one of the best ways to make this world a better place is by creating projects that are generous, ethical, and aligned with our values. We certainly have enough people building things without caring about the impact they create. We must change that.
I hope you find this small space helpful and valuable, and I look forward to hearing from everybody and sharing our experiences.
Here’s an important lesson I revisited today:
Everything starts with a vision, a thought that feels clear, that makes sense to us, and that makes us believe. But it’s not about having that vision once. It’s about coming back to it every day and aligning our actions to make it happen.
Write it down. Read it daily. Adjust it as you learn. And keep asking yourself: Is what I’m doing today supporting that vision?
Peace, brothers.
