Are you feeling a creative spark? It's also called the impulse of creation. It's your connection to your unique combination of talents and skills. Do you feel plugged in, a lightness of being, excited?
What type of community do you envision? Will you co-create from your client list, neighbors, spiritual tribe, professional colleagues, specific population, social connections, activism, specific solutions/gifts you possess that fill an important need within local/global community? All of the above? None of the above? If none of the above, take a few conscious breaths, bring your awareness to your heart, keep breathing and journal for more clarity.
What is your intention for this community?
How will your vision serve the greater good?
What are your personal/professional/spiritual touchstones? The emotional core of your vision. What do you want to experience as a result of co-creating this vision?
Based on your own gifts and uniqueness as a person - how do you want this community to differ from other communities? State what you want as opposed to what you don't want.
Do you totally believe that it is possible for people in general to co-create an intentional community? For you? That you deserve your vision?
How will people around you be affected by you attaining your vision? Might any of them be affected adversely? If so, how can you transform these perceived challenges into opportunities to move forward with your vision?
After gaining clarity and congruence through the above questions – What's your first step?
How will you know when you have achieved your vision? Specific evidence...your first gathering...your first member?
Share your vision with two people with whom you resonate. Not people who judge you or who are confused by you. Listen and feel yourself express your vision. What's your experience? Remember, this is YOUR vision. If it lights you up inside – YOU'RE IN DIVINE FLOW!
