Publisher's Synopsis
The most valuable wisdom in the world has likely been in front of you your whole life. Are you ready to start living it? Higher Choices is a call to action to live by the Universal Values that unite each and every person alive on the planet today. Despite the apparent differences and divisions in our world, we all seek the same things: freedom, equality, tolerance, solidarity, respect for life, and a just economic order. But we don't all seem to have equal access to these Universal Social Values. While the reasons may appear overwhelmingly complex, it actually comes down to a simple truth: most of us choose to live in a lower state of consciousness rather than aspiring to live at all times by the higher Universal Spiritual Values that are already known to us and that are common to our religious traditions around the world. The choices we make moment-by-moment create the world that we live in. Higher Choices offers a framework for understanding the nature of our choices and whether they are aligned with high-vibration Universal Spiritual Values such as love, forgiveness, and compassion, or low-vibration human emotions such as fear, greed, and judgment. It examines the conditions that lead us to believe as we do, most notably the influence of religion and traditional concepts of God. It challenges readers to question beliefs that they were given-beliefs that may be working against them in creating the life and world they imagine. And it offers practical guidance for making higher choices-both large and small-in daily life. Using real world examples and drawing on the author's personal experience, Higher Choices demonstrates that every individual has the power to contribute to greater good in the world without having to change their career, family life, location, or living situation. All that is needed is the strength, conviction, and will to make higher choices every day in whatever situations arise. This simple personal change will help create a life and a world that are more honest, compassionate, tolerant, and forgiving. For as goes the human consciousness, so goes the world.
