The first step in any journey is to realize you need to take a journey. Awareness. Change. Awakening. Triggering awakening in the consciousness through introspection and analysis is a key step in the innovation process and it is a step that will, undoubtedly, come with its share of (necessary) chaos.

Infinity is forever...or is it? Are we truly doomed to repeat the same loops or do we have the power to choose? Disruption is about breaking cycles that may have been comfortable in some ways, but damaging in others. It's about being brave enough to stop doing what will not take us to our next step and, instead, take the path less traveled.

Once one has woken to the reality that change is needed and has made the decision to let go of the things that no longer serve them, it is time to learn about their environment...again. Ego death =/= permanent death; it is the opportunity to be reborn. Just as a baby must learn about the world around it, so must you learn about the brave new world that you wish to exist in. Is this really what you want?

This existence was birthed by love, in love, and for love. It's more than red hearts and mushy feelings...its about embracing the light and darkness that lies in all of us to understand that, at our core, we are all connected. Love is a design principle that strives to remind us that we HAVE to acknowledge the things we cannot quite change...while also inspiring us to reject the belief that we can't evolve. When there is a will (and love), there is ALWAYS a way!
