Do. Be. Do. Be. Do.

If money were no object, would you still work where you do now?  Is it your calling? Or is it just a job, a stepping stone in a career?

The final law cited in Chopra's Seven Spiritual Laws of Success acknowledges the power of calling--living a life of purpose or dharma.  In the last chapter, Chopra challenges us to know ourselves, to harness our unique talents in service to humanity.

Dharma is also the seventh and final attribute summarized in the 7 Measures of Success: the importance of aligning an association's work--its products and services--around its mission. 

The authors note that remarkable associations not only speak passionately about fulfilling their mission, they constantly test their ideas for products against that mission. "To find the right mix of products and services that align with their missions, remarkable associations willingly engage in experimentation.  They doggedly protect their core purpose and related activities while investigating new initiatives."

So while the 7 Measures of Success describe what differentiates good and great associations, I believe Chopra's seven spiritual laws animate them.  For one, I can only try to follow the recommended practice in both of these remarkable little books. 

Do less. Be more.  Evolve.  Find your passion and act on it.  And, as Frank Sinatra crooned, "Do. Be. Do. Be. Do."
