Hi Friends,
Ultimate KPIs for Life and Work - Loving-Kindness and Letting Go
I asked ChatGPT to summarize my video for me, if you’d rather have a TLDW(watch):
In this video, I will be discussing the concept of key performance indicators (KPIs) in the context of spiritual development. As a Buddhist practitioner, I have found that the search for improvement in spiritual development can become an ego-building process, which is counter to the ultimate goal of letting go. I introduce the idea of using "loving kindness" as a leading KPI, as it is something that can never be overdone, and can help facilitate the ultimate KPI of "letting go." I also discuss the importance of self-love and self-care as a means to better love and care for others. I remind viewers that it is important not to judge themselves on a scale of 1-10 on their progress towards these KPIs, but rather to simply ask themselves the question as a reminder and let it linger in their mind.
Experience Kind Camp for Yourself
Relatedly, I’m delighted to let you know that there’s a *free* Kind Camp Mini-Writer’s Retreat happening next Wednesday!
Here’s the event info:
Join Write of Passage Editor (Cohort 8) and Mentor (Cohort 9) Christin Chong for a Mini-Writer’s Retreat at Kind Camp.
Kind Camp is a vibe container designed to discover the deeper writer within you.
Who is the deeper writer?
It's the part of you that yearns to share your personal truth. The part of you that flouts the rules of algorithms and braves the boundaries of being vulnerable online.
How can we access the deeper writer?
At Kind Camp, we use guided reflective writing and meditation to surface the "Personal"of POP. Your words will truly shine, because they will come from the depths of your highest intentions.
During this Mini-Writer’s Retreat, Christin will guide reflective writing and meditation together, followed by an open discussion. The intention is to help you develop genuine openness and clarity that results from goal-aligned kindness and mindfulness practices. Here, it's using your love of writing to help you love yourself.
The session is friendly to folks with a wide range of meditation experience (from no experience with meditation to a lifetime of practice.)
Christin Chong, PhD is a neuroscientist, chaplain-in-training, and the author of Debug Your Meditation. You can learn more about her Cohort 9 mentor sessions here.
Warm Wishes,
Christin
Oh my gosh I love seeing you speak; this has made my month!
