FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION Career and life questions and considerations: (Please note: These are “living” questions which require frequent asking, as the insights will evolve to those devoted to self awareness) - How may I contribute? - How may I be used as an instrument to contribute, to serve? - How may I alleviate suffering? Starting with my own? - How may I contribute to the greater good of all, including the planet? - Please teach me freedom (from unconscious patterns, conditioning, childhood trauma). And please guide me to embody that freedom, and, if it serves, then help others who seek the same - Please help me have compassion and forgive myself when I fall short, which is inevitable - Please help me “be the change” I want to see in the world - Please help me learn and embody the number one universal value: do no harm Peter Bromley Work in progress . . . . . #values #humility #mastersathlete #trailrunner #success #highperformance #toronto #mentalhealth #ptsd #runner #career #donoharm #bethechange #culture #compassion #meditation #peace #peaceofmind (at Clearlight Evolution) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqK5cQrO7aw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION Running to be still 5:30 am peace, running on snow covered streets and ravines in Toronto, Canada. Just before the military comes to remove the 10 cms of snow….(an insider poke of silly political leaders of Toronto’s past). Running gives peace of mind but was also frequently disturbed by a very old pattern of punishing myself. Extreme exertion to exhaustion was the value, which is probably one of the reasons ultramarathons have been a preferred outlet. Thanks to wonder coach Normand D’Eon, I am gently led to run to enjoy, rather than to endure. It’s amazing how early childhood conditioning clings to even aging minds and bodies like dried fruit on a limb unwilling to fall to the ground. A lifetime of pushing boulders up mountains is slowly being replaced by running free of burden. So at this early hour I give thanks just for the chance to run, and run unburdened. It’s worthwhile to examine one’s early childhood conditioning. Because it is possible, even likely, that those ghosts of the past rattle unhelpfully now.

FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION “My story isn’t pleasant, it’s not sweet and harmonious like the invented stories; It tastes of folly and bewilderment, Of madness and dream, Like the life of all people who no longer want to lie to themselves.” Hermann Hesse (Poet, novelist, painter) . . . . #peaceofmind #authentic #authenticity #mastersathlete #integrity #alignment #culture #success #winterrunning #harrier #monday #mentalhealth #ptsd #peaceofmind #culture #harrier_trail_running #terracotta #values #canada #ultrarunning #shotoniphone #ultrarunner #snow #trailrunning #donoharm #bethechange (at Clearlight Evolution) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoCfCVeONxH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION May you fish in peaceful waters. The skies may threaten and seas stir, but, miraculously, human beings have a capacity to host it all in peace, equanimity, dispassion, acceptance. Now that, too, is a miracle, available through the study and practice of self awareness. (Full disclosure: the author remains a student of this miracle, hardly the example, yet knows the reality of it) Peter Bromley Work in progress . . . . . #success #ceo #highperformance #mastersathlete #atlanticocean #lobster #lobsterfishing #boat #sky #maritime #peggyscove #culture #mentalhealth #ptsd #storm #leadership #nature #fathersky #motherearth #tuesday #tuesdaymotivation #eastdover #trialrunner #trailrunning #peace #peaceofmind . . . . . . # (at East Dover, Nova Scotia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnPK3sHuOWu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Freedom often turns one’s world upside down, as it shatters unconscious values that constrict, sabotage and cause harm. Self knowledge, using a proven source alongside a qualified teacher will help things right side up. But only if you have a burning desire to be free. Free from those unconscious values to which we often become used to-even addicted to.

FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION Is it possible those angry, harsh, cruel, limiting voices that scream inside our heads get re-directed towards others (especially athletes, politicians, leaders, entertainers, journalists-partial list)? Does that offer some or any relief? Does that improve relationships and performance? What is the cost of this fury? To you? To others? Do you even notice the fury within? And how else may this energy be handled? Part of self knowledge encourages “restraint of the senses.” This requires extraordinary study, practice, patience, humility . At least it does for me: a man of peace who also knows rage and anger. But ultimately committed to peace.
