Each of these next couple of week's posts will begin with a question: What does my career have to do with my spiritual cornerstone? What do you think this question is about?

It is a professional observation that when "professional growth" is offered to employees they do one of three things. One: is to consider it a "goof off" day and go to the event/training/seminar and only half listen, take no notes or perhaps bring a laptop and are otherwise engaged and not participating. Two: they attend but do not take notes and cut out early. Three: they use it to gain a foothold and surpass those peers in attendance. These individuals make connection, network and make an effort to engage the speaker.

Cornerstone #4 is probably the most important and at the same time gets the most push-back from the public at large. What is it about this word "Spiritual" that pushes the "hot button" on so many folks? My firm belief on this is that the word "Spiritual" is equated to putting "restrictions" and "limits" on behavior, thoughts, actions, words and so on. Just like the two year old who seems to utter only "NO" for a whole year, or "I do it myself", we too find ourselves in rebellion of "instruction" and want to live our lives in the manner which suits us with no taboos, no consequences and no boundaries which might restrict our having "fun" in life as we want to live it.
