Showing results for "Transparency" in All Categories

Penney Peirce shows us how to let go of everything that gets in our way - the obstacles, clutter, and fears - to truly achieve greater authenticity, clarity of purpose, and feelings of belonging and joy. By transforming our opaque reality into a state of transparency, the dividing lines that fragment and isolate us melt away and all that's left is the true self - connecting us to everything and everyone. Transparency helps you learn that when you're transparent, there is great power in being seen for all of who you are.

Buyers today have knowledge at their fingertips and most of their information gathering will routinely happen before you even walk through the door or get them on the phone.

Today, anyone buying anything relies on reviews and feedback shared by strangers and often trust those anonymously posted experiences more than the claims made by the providers of the products or services themselves. They expect to see the full picture and find out all of the pros and cons before making any purchase.

Are you tired of trying to be someone you’re not? Many of us spend a lot of energy—especially at church—trying to hide the fact that we’re struggling. We can’t share our marriage problems. Our addiction. Our sense of distance from God. In Being Real > Being Perfect, Justin Davis reminds us that God doesn’t heal what we don’t admit is broken. Being Real > Being Perfect is an inspiring rallying cry for Christians to let go of pretending and enjoy a freeing, authentic relationship with Jesus and others.

Our world is filled with fake facades, from the unrealistic filters used on social media to the “holier than thou” personas seen in certain hypocritical believers.

During the states versus Live Nation trial I was in the courtroom one morning before the jury came in, ready to argue my motion to unseal Live Nation / Ticketmaster's filing. Then something unexpected happened. Judge Arun Subramanian chided both sides for a telephone conference he said he'd held the night before at 8 pm. He said he had read the letters they had "filed" after the call. But there was no notice of the telephone conference in the public docket on PACER. The letters they said were "filed" were not there, even in redacted form. On behalf of Inner City Press, which had already ...

Corruption runs against the grain of meritocratic capitalism. It skews the level playing-field; it imposes onerous and unpredictable transaction costs; it guarantees extra returns where none should have been had; it encourages the misallocation of economic resources; and it subverts the proper functioning of institutions. It is, in other words, without a single redeeming feature, a scourge. Strangely, this is not how it is perceived by its perpetrators: both the givers and the recipients. They believe that corruption helps facilitate the flow and exchange of goods and services in hopelessly...
