CMWS Presents an Exciting Platform to Expand Your Solving Power

Adriana Gardella: expert in computer technology, entrepreneur, professor and philanthropist writes, "Why Women Have an Advantage in Technology". The article shines a light on some of the present facts and perceptions as well as the possibilities and promise for women, society and our planet. All of the comments are wonderful and valid as well. The University of MN Humphrey Institute/s Center on Women & Public Policy in partnership with the Women's Foundation of Minnesota reveals that while there remains a gap in workforce and pay equity for women in high paying professions that could evoke unpleasant emotions, a deeper look reveals that hi tech fields are chipping away at the gap faster than other areas.

Adriana's why and how to expand opportunities towards equity is right on and echos the recommendations of Women & Public Policy. We all need to expand our personal perceptions in order to create sustainable wealth and wellness. This requires us to nurture the skills of the masculine and feminine in all of our children and more importantly in ourselves. At Central Minnesota Women Shine we are expanding our power to welcome, validate, envision and create what we need to realize our goals for self, family and community through our netweaving events and projects.

Central Minnesota Women Shine is mirroring the attitudes and processes of a new paradigm for living and doing business in the 21st Century. An I Game Attitude presentation and conference will be filmed in Sydney Australia, the very same day as CMWS' next netweaving event. Whether your field of expertise and passion is technology, marketing, education, invention, human services, wellness or law You will find this experience offers a pragmatic and exciting platform to expand your solving power and ours. We welcome your voice~your vision~your solutions.

At a recent AAUW meeting, St. Cloud area branch, we discussed the findings of the Women and Public Policy report and noted a trend that Adriana pinpointed as well. Men in technology and engineering fields recognize the traditionally female/feminine attributes of being more collaborative and intuitive. This leads to better products. It is by bringing together the powerful masculine skills of leadership and production with the feminine skills of collaboration and openness that we will create the peaceful prosperity that is just beyond these perceptions of inequity and scarcity.

Hop on this moving train with us, cut through the landscape that is hiding the view.  Join us at Central Minnesota Women Shine netweaving this Wednesday and expand your solving power for living and doing business in the 21st Century.

I Game Attitude: Solar or Lunar? Positive or Negative

Most limitations are self-imposed. Our challenge is to overcome them and be the whole human being we are meant to be. The world situation reflects this limited state of being. Our limiting  beliefs originate in our Lunar  Father Polarity. Yes, our 4 polarities may manifest themselves in their Solar or Lunar light. There is nothing wrong with our Lunar light, it’s a stage of development. Let’s understand that negative and positive are two ends of the same process. Think of  the different stages of germination, growing is done from the rich darkness and moisture of the soil to the warm and open sunlight, both nurtures the seed. The mourning process follows the same path. And so does creativity.
To reach our full potential we have to understand and welcome Lunar, “negative” and Solar, “positive” states not as opposites: not as good and bad, but as a process, weaving the fabric of our growth. Exploring our Lunar light  invites us to an awareness of our internal paradoxes, making us grow stronger each time by understanding our self better and letting go of any feeling of guilt or rejection.  Boosting our Solar light reinforces our balance and harmony as a result.
It’s up to us to learn about our 4 polarities and how they manifest themselves in their Solar or Lunar ambiance. It’s up to us to set up an internal ecology monitor to check the validity of our actions because if there’s nothing wrong with Lunar, staying in Lunar ambiance indefinitely can be disastrous.
Step 1:  Become aware of the Lunar, “negative”  thoughts and beliefs that keep you from growing, from getting what you want and need. Step 2: Bring your beliefs in line with your feelings: Welcome the pain of the loss or rejection you have experienced. Step 3: Validate your ability to create something new. Step 4: Take a Solar, “positive” action with your glowing self esteem to create the vibrant, rich life you are meant to realize.
