Encouraging Spiritual Development in the Workplace
Encouraging Spiritual Development in the Workplace by Tom Hinton Chairmanr The 10,000 Days Foundation There’s a positive movement taking hold in the workplace. Companies are discovering a new way to motivate, energize and relate to employees by helping them discover and develop their spiritual essence. I refer to this movement as Employee Spiritual Development or ESD. Not too many years ago, such a movement would have been dismissed as radical or controversial; but, not in today’s self-actualizing work environment.

Work-Life Balance: How to Create Balance and Maintain Your Sanity in This Crazy, Competitive World
By Tom Hinton In 2007, I made a major transition. I stopped going to work. While I still had a job, employees to supervise and a business to manage, I made the strategic decision that I was going to regain control of my life and make time for the things I enjoy! To do this, I started working from home and stopped going into the office.

People Are Like Roses
By Tom Hinton Not far from my front door is a beautiful park where I enjoy walking in the early morning just after sunrise. Frequently, as I’ve completed my morning walk, I’ve seen an elderly woman arrive with her flower basket and pruning tools in one hand and a small three-legged stool in the other hand. She comes to tend to the many rose bushes that grace our neighborhood park.

"Our ultimate challenge in this lifetime is to define and achieve our higher purpose. While we all share the same higher purpose, no two lives are the same, and no two people travel the same path on their journey to discover their higher purpose."

It is through The Course -- the most powerful personal growth journey I have ever completed -- that we can achieve that delicate balance between our ego and Inner Spirit; and, ultimately discover our higher purpose.

10,000 Days: The Rest of Your Life, the Best of Your Life (now avialable on Amazon.com)
I learned through The Course of 10,000 Days that the three greatest attributes in life are Love, Humility, and Courage. Love makes all things possible. Humility opens our hearts to forgiveness and love; and Courage gives us the strength to overcome obstacles, believe in ourself, and achieve our life dreams."

How to get started
For more than twenty years, I taught companies and organizations how to create a culture of excellence and improve their business results. In 2005, I completed The Course of 10,000 Days, a powerful, personal development weekend retreat that focuses on helping people balance and nurture the three elements of our Being -- our Ego, Emotions and Inner Spirit. It was at The Course (as it's commonly referred to) weekend retreat that I awakened to the startling realization that I was living my life without knowing my higher purpose.
Shortly thereafter, I set off on a personal journey to discover my higher purpose in life. I was not unhappy, but simply unfulfilled. Along the way, I found the answers to many of life's most challenging questions and, ultimately, decided to dedicate my life work to helping others achieve happiness, abundance and personal growth through The Course of 10,000 Days.
Since 2005, I have dedicated much of my life work to introducing audiences to this powerful, personal growth and self-improvement program. The Course challenges us to accept ourselves for who we are and build a life worth remembering. It also challenges us to probe deep within our hearts to answer the Three Sacred Questions of Life. Finally, The Course teaches us how to quiet our ego and call upon our Inner Spirit to guide us to our higher purpose. Once we make this powerful discovery -- our higher purpose -- we can began to life a life worth remembering and achieve great results in our lifetime!
I should mention that 10,000 Days equals just over 27 years. The Course teaches us that the average life span is 30,000 days. But, it isn't until our final 10,000 Days, which is known as our Legacy Years, that we really begin to ask ourselves those penetrating questions about living a life worth remembering and achieving significance on earth. This is what compelled me to undertake the The Course weekend retreat and write the book, 10,000 Days: The Rest of Your Life, the Best of Your Life (available on www.amazon.com).
In the process of completing The Course, I re-defined my life mission -- to inspire, teach, and nurture people in the ways of service, leadership, and love. After writing the book, 10,000 Days: The Rest of Your Life, the Best of Your Life, and I joined the board of directors of 10,000 Days Foundation, which introduces people to The Course of 10,000 Days workshops and helps them discover their higher purpose. I encourage you to attend The Course retreat or introductory workshop.
Finally, I have learned through this powerful process that Love, Humility, and Courage are the three greatest attributes in life. Love makes all things possible. Humility opens our hearts to forgiveness and love; and Courage gives us the strength to overcome obstacles, believe in ourself, and achieve our life dreams.
