85 Prozent der Erdbewohner leben unterhalb der Bewusstseinsschwelle 200.
Jetzt, wo das durchschnittliche Bewusstseinsniveau [der Menschheit] oberhalb der Integritätsschwelle [bei 207] liegt, hat sich das Denkmodell geändert. Das neue Paradigma ist nicht mehr "Erfolg", sondern stattdessen Integrität. Für das, wofür man früher mit einem Zwinkern bedacht wurde, werden wir mittlerweile zur Rechenschaft gezogen.
Dr. David Hawkins, Houston, Texas, Seminar The Realization of the Presence of God, 11. Oktober 2003

Zitate von D. Hawkins zum Thema Erfolg / Success

Als das durchschnittliche Bewusstseinsniveau [der Menschheit] auf BW 190 war, konnte man mit Unlauterkeit, mit der Amigo-Mentalität unter Geschäftsleuten, durchkommen. Nun, wo das Gesamtbewusstsein auf 205 oder 207 gestiegen ist, sieht man [den Konzern] Enron fallen und Martha Stewart vor Gericht stehen. Daher ist das neue Paradigma des Erfolgs Integrität. Geld zu verdienen, genügte seit Beginn des letzten Jahrhunderts bis ins heutige. Erfolg war Geld, Ruhm und dergleichen. Inzwischen liegt der Fokus der Gesellschaft auf Integrität und darauf, was die Wahrheit ist. Interview mit David R. Hawkins, Truth vs. Falsehood, New Connexion.net, Miriam Knight, September 2004

Zitate (engl.) von D. Hawkins

Success isn't something you have to get, it's just the automatic consequence of integrity. If you're the best carpenter around, you don't have to advertise. Source unknown, Motivational Quotes, Bestmotivation.com

Humility is the recognition and acknowledgement, whether spoken or unspoken, of the true Source of all understanding, inspiration and success. Source unknown

To be a success, it’s necessary to embrace and operate from the principles that produce success, not just imitate the actions of successful people. Source unknown

Truly successful people are not inclined to act arrogantly, because they do not consider themselves better than others, only more lucky. They see their position as a responsibility, an obligation to exert their influence for the greater benefit of all. Source unknown

Success elevates us or destroys us, depending not on the success itself, but on how we integrate it in our personalities. If we are proud or humble; if we are egotistical or thankful; if we consider ourselves better than others because of our talents or we consider our talents a gift, and for them we are thankful – these are the determining factors. Power vs. Force, S. ?

It [ego] seeks success by whatever yardstick it measures that illusory goal. Happiness is always around the next corner, so its strains harder to achieve its goals. The Eye of the I, S. 115

It is the will of every truly enlightened sage that every spiritual seeker succeeds, and not just the members of some specific or exclusive group. Just as the individual seeker of spiritual advancement benefits all mankind, thus also does the enlightenment of the Teachers benefit the seeker. I. Reality and Subjectivity, S. 109-110

In ordinary life, desire for success and status as ambition is considered normal and represents the quality of rajas activity; it is therefore a sign of the evolution of consciousness beyond lethargy. I. Reality and Subjectivity, S. 191

Integrity in business wins out:

Hiring honest managers with integrity is essential to picking winning stocks.

"Events" emerge as a consequence of the inner qualities of content and field, and the explanatory principle of one-to-one causation that dominates our current society is an insufficient explanation for events The accident involving the insulation of the space shuttle led initially to a search for singular cause or a responsible individual, but none was found. Then, with a brilliant jump of consciousness, the researchers deduced that the event was the impersonal consequence of the "climate" of NASA at the time. Similar insights have emerged in the world of business in which success is understood to be a product of a culture and its values. [Ref. Chris Davis, US American CEO of Davis Advisors, The Culture Club's Good Karma. Chris Davis of Davis Advisors judges companies by their value systems – and makes money doing it, Fortune Magazine, David Rynecki, 13. October 2003] Truth vs Falsehood, S. 56

At the level of Willingness, work is done well and success is common in all endeavors. Growth is rapid here; these are the people chosen for advancement. Willingness implies that one has overcome inner resistance to life and is committed to participation. Transcending the Levels of Consciousness, chapter 11, Willingness, S. 203

It becomes more important to succeed than to win. Anybody can win. It doesn't mean anything. It's success. Untitled audio interview, presented by US web radio station Beyond the Ordinary, host Nicole Whitney, aired 10. February 2004

When we were at [LoC of mankind] 190 one could get away with non-integrity, which is the Old Boys way of doing business. And now at 205 or 207, you see Enron fall and Martha Stewart called on the carpet; so the new paradigm of success is integrity. Making money was sufficient during the early part of the last century through this century; success was money and fame, and all those things. And now the focus of society is integrity and what is the truth. Interview Truth vs. Falsehood, presented by New Connexion.net, Miriam Knight, September 2004

We've crossed over LoC 200 collectively and now we're really moving from force into power. You see, the new paradigm of success is not money, as in the last century. Anybody can make money. To double your income, all you have to do is get a second job. The new sign of success is integrity. Interview with David R. Hawkins, MD, PhD, presented by US magazine Holistic Networker, Gina Mazza Hillier, 13. August 2005

Eighty-five percent of people on the planet live below a location of consciousness of 200. Now that the average [LoC of mankind] is 207, above the level of integrity, the paradigm has changed. The new paradigm is no longer "success", but instead is integrity. Things that were formerly winked at, we are now held accountable for. Houston, Texas, Seminar The Realization of the Presence of God, Unity Church, 11. October 2003

You need to be right, you need to make money, you need to be successful – it's the neediness that’s the problem. Instead, become that which attracts those things. Sedona Seminar Identification and Illusion, 3 DVD set, 14. August 2004

Question: Success and goals, and where do they fit in with spirituality?
Answer: You want to fulfill the potential of your creation. You were created with certain gifts. You want to fulfill the love of God by utilization of those gifts for the good of others. Those goals are not necessarily contradictory to spiritual growth. It shows respect for Divinity and thankfulness for your creation to become that which you can become to the greatest degree. No matter what you are doing, do it to the greatest potential you are capable of. You are respecting the grace and gift of life […] to be the perfect expression of your own potentiality. Sedona Satsang Q&A, 2 CD set, 13. September 2006

According to Socrates, the successful tyrant who is able to do great wrong for many years without ever being held accountable, was the most terribly harmed of all human beings. Socrates believed that doing injustice made us less just and diminished our character. For Socrates, harm to character, or the soul, is the greatest harm of all. Since Socrates believed that all wrongdoing harmed the wrongdoer, he believed that all people never choose to harm themselves and thus never choose to do wrong. When we see people knowingly doing wrong to others, they are not cognizant of the harm that their wrongdoing brings upon themselves. So it is that even the most flagrant examples of willful human wrongdoing, which may seem to contradict Socrates’ belief, actually confirm Socrates belief by being examples of our instinct to benefit ourselves misguided by ignorance. If all wrongdoing harms the wrongdoer and all people make decisions only to benefit themselves, then all people commit wrongdoing through ignorance and not through a will to do wrong. Max Maxwell, A Socratic Perspective on The Nature of Human Evil, Socraticmethod.net, 2008
