Summary

In a world where likes, hearts, and a little blue thumbs-up are considered the epitome of success, it’s so hard to remember that being a good person is its own reward. All too often, our acts of sharing come with strings attached. We expect praise or recognition for doing the right thing, but to be a spiritual person is to share for the sake of sharing. Listen as Monica and Michael discuss letting go of the need for praise and developing an unmovable understanding that you are a spark of the Divine.

“Spiritually speaking, the highest form of recognition is between us, our soul, and the Creator. This form of recognition is completely concealed, and only we know whether or not it is happening, and that’s the beauty of it.” – Monica Berg

1:11.4	trying to prove their significance. Some even become praise junkies. Not change junkies,
1:18.9	but praise junkies. We're a spiritual junkie. We'll cover that along the way today. So I want
