Thank you, Jean, and sorry I just found this comment! You know, you can measure your MOC. Do you remember when Jonette demonstrated the “muscle testing” in the first Enlightened Leadership class at UCSF? You can use that to measure MOC – not that it’s important to know as much as providing a place from which to measurably increase consciousness. Best wishes!

I think I’m a little confused about how to reply! Kathy, excellent comment. THanks for sharing your process. I can certainly relate to what you went through, and I’ll bet everyone else can too! I think it has something to do with being human. People don’t mind change as much as they don’t like to be forced to change! My best,
Ed

Great comments, Gary! and forgive me not seeing it earlier. Because you “get it,” Gary, I want to recommend a phenomenal book I’m just now reading. It is written by Martin Seligman, father of positive psychology. “Flourish” is the title. It gives scientific evidence for why our 5 Action Steps for Breakthrough Results works so well! Thanks.

Hi Joe, great comments and questions, and forgive me for not seeing the comment before now.
I’m not sure JUST being at a higher consciousness level oneself will elevate the entire team, HOWEVER, I believe the ACTIONS and BEHAVIORS and MOTIVATIONS of someone with a higher consciousness WILL impact the team. Perhaps the best thing you could do is to raise your own consciousness, because that would give you the personal power and drive to make a bigger difference. Best wishes to the higher part of you!

ps: would love Tom Rausch’s perspective on this.

Tom, I just discovered your comment! My apologies. I’m grateful for the wealth of perspective you bring, and I can see I have some homework to do, including checking to see if you have a blog! Blessings for higher consciousness!

Thanks, Syed. Sorry, I missed these comments.

Probably the best way is to read David Hawkins book, “Power vs Force.” Another even deeper is “Healing & Recovery,” an amazing book. Probably best to read “Power vs Force” for the foundation first.

Ed,
Recently, I had a situation at work, I was told I had to learn and use a new leads tracking program to organize my sales efforts for reporting purposes for upper management. I did not have a choice in using the new program. I had already made the subconscious decision I would not like a new leads tracking program because of the extra work I would need to do in inputting leads into the program and following up on the leads on predetermined dates. As I was training myself on the program, at first I was really angry and frustrated. I slowly learned the program with a very negative attitude because my mind does not like change. The more I trained myself, I saw some benefits in being more organized and following up on leads with more lead prioritization and less stress. My attitude changed to a positive attitude as I started using the program and found the program to be very helpful in increasing my sales which made me happier and my boss happier. My change in attitude was a very positive force in reducing my stress and succeeding in meeting my boss’s and my goals.
You are correct, a person’s attitude is a self fulfilling prophecy. A person needs to make a conscious decision to have a positive attitude if the person wants to achieve goals. Kathy

Ed – Thank you for this great article! I’ve become more aware of self in the last couple of years and have been wanting to achieve a higher MOC, not knowing this was the term for it nor that there’s a scale associated with various levels, and ultimately, quite how to go about it. The information in your article has helped me gain a much better understanding of the MOC and insight into ways of possibly raising my MOC, and certainly the level I should be above.

Very interesting and helpful. Please keep these coming!

Thank you.
