I went into work after listening to AOH and had this little sense that “I have enough”. I felt it emotionally. I stopped to pick up a coffee (not my norm), and I got one for my coworker too.
–I remember feeling twinges of recon during this. I realize I’ve held to reasons I shouldn’t trust my coworker, and something in me was saying “open the door and see”. Like it was battling old beliefs I’ve had so I’d be safe.
And nothing at all happened like I thought it would. We BOTH were very natural and relaxed. Amazing how when I’m relaxed and open that others are too.
I also had this conversation with a woman, a customer, who was living in a wealthy area. She was open immediately (Khan?), but I was feeling full emotionally, so a 10 minute conversation began. I connected with her easily (also not my norm).
But one thing I did I’ve never done easily around people with money. I think I shared it because I picked up she was insecure financially. I didn’t sense superiority at all.
I shared an insight I caught years back. During the last major recession (2008-ish), I noticed a LOT of frenzied activity PRIMARILY from the wealthier crowd. It was painfully obvious.
What I shared was that people who really have money, like major money, aren’t stressed daily by market changes and economic dips. In our town, there’s a bit of competition for social status. And the people living on the edge, trying to look good and appear wealthy, were the frenzied crowd. It’s so obvious to me, and I relaxed, feeling that even while I was talking to her. I wasn’t “poor” mentally. I can remember associating great fear talking about such things to wealthy people in times past, but I didn’t sense that societal wall up. I felt like I was talking to an equal.
—I’ll add this. My motive for sharing it? Khan and AOH teamed up, putting me in a “let me try this” situation. I felt it, so I went with it. I took action 
.
And that was adding AOH, not EOG.
