Greetings!

After writing about   in my last newsletter, one might say that a bit of chaos has come my way.

I'm quitting my job in Corporate America to work on my film.

 
But why now?


Partly because my manager shut the door in her office one day and gave me a heart-to-heart talk about how she felt things had been going...

But mostly because I had a heart-to-heart talk with myself and my family and realized that now is the time to submit to a higher calling..

A calling that offers more than my current job ever can: meaning, fullfillment and the rare opportunity to have a significant impact on the lives of others.

Though I've worked there for 17 years, I can no longer deliver what Corporate America wants.  At least not now.

I hear a different voice - see a different vision. Respond to a different rhythm!

Soon, I'll report to a different office - the office of the ancestors. For the first time in many years, I'll be able to hear them with total clarity because they'll have me all to themselves.

And with their help and your continued support, we will bring this visionary film to life.
Interpreting The Signs Around Us

When I told Stephanie, my wife, what was going on at work and how stressful it had become, I was surprised by her answer.

  
She didn't panic at the thought of me leaving my job. Instead, she said: "Sometimes we have to be forced to do what's good for us."

 

And one by one, friends and family stepped forward to express support.

Tulani, my 22-year-old daughter, said: "You're either figuring out your calling and abiding by that, or you're not."

And on Christmas day, one woman who had previously donated $100 to the film, emailed me to say that she intends to send a contribution of $1,000 or more because she firmly believes Across The King's River will be an important documentary! 

 

That email "blew me away." After I read it, I arose from the couch and started pacing around in the kitchen, deep in thought.  I felt humbled and inspired all at once.

 

Who knows what will happen when YOU fully submit to your vision!

 
When it's time to make a change you'll know it because the entire universe will speak to you in a consistent voice.

 

That's what my experience is leading me to believe.


And once you pay attention to the signs, you'll be led to a place where you can be of greater service to humanity.


Is it risky?  Of course! But it's also risky to reject opportunities to grow year, after year, after year.

 

And so...I'm heading into the unknown.

  

Until our next time!
