The Direction of Intention

10.

Join me in inspiring truly powerful people. Each day I will add a new thought, story or idea to support your quest and mine.

Daniel locates himself and negotiates the world through sound; he “clicks” and the returning sound helps him identify his surroundings. Daniel is blind. He is an avid cyclist, a world traveler, he hikes… and he does it all through echolocation; what he calls Flash Sonar. He founded World Access for the Blind, a non-profit organization dedicated to a “no limits” philosophy “which challenges blind children (and us) to challenge what we think we know.”

What do you assume about blindness?

Using echolocation Daniel Kish teaches blind children to step boldly into their world; using sound to discover what is around them, the same principle employed by bats; he inspires children to move beyond an identity based in limitation into a life of expansive possibility.

What are the limits you assume? How might your assumptions change if you allowed yourself to walk into your limits, to make mistakes, to learn from the things you bumped into?

Daniel lives it. He teaches it. Truly powerful people are dedicated to inspiring true power in others.
