Living in the Overlap
The Mandorla is an ancient symbol found in many religions and spiritual traditions, it consists of two overlapping circles creating an almond-like or eye shape in the centre. This shape represents the overlap between heaven and earth, it also represents the birth canal and so new life.
If you look carefully you’ll even find it in the architecture of cathedrals.
It is in the overlap where life happens, where the magic is, where we encounter the divine.
Why am I telling you this?
Well, it is in the overlap of your passions, your talents, and what people are prepared to take their wallets out for where the magic is. Jim Collins calls it the Hedgehog concept, the Japanese call it Ikigai, our reason for being that exists in the in-between.
Get skin in the game, find the overlap.
