Guru Needs Strategy and Strategy Needs Guru

A good strategy is needed with so much chaos and potential flying around. The good news is, guru is strategy and strategy is needed for guru. A 2 birds 1 stone outcome is always satisfying, especially when the birds are the ones circling your own head. So the following is a detailed strategy for building up experience and content for guru, whilst using that platform to organise thoughts and make things happen. 

Statements
First and foremost, the backbone for all content is statements. They start you off and are digestible, inciting, and an entry point for further information. This means twitter for the time being, so the regular posting and reading of tweets on a particular topic, keeping the whole thing moving and set in stone.

Content
Next is stepping up these nuggets of info to some chunky and informative strands of content. This goes deeper, and says what it needs to say in as long as it needs to say it. This means connecting to media on the web, creating your own, and stretching out and cementing what you know and letting your personality bleed out through what you produce. This will mostly take the form of articles for the time being, but other forms of media would be cool too.

Intent
The last element of guru currently helpfully playing its part is intent. This small chunking of focus of a transient nature, essential todos, knits your vision into a reality that can be stated and helps to construct flow. This currently takes the form of asana.com, with the goal being clear and well structured tasks and deadlines, and making keeping up with all this relatively effortless.

With this as a core method it paves the way for an HQ of operations that can be scaled into the infrastructure of a complex and influential organisation or movement, as well as providing a constant training ground for the development of the sensation of flow itself.

If 5 people buy you a pint, that’s an event

If 5 people buy you a pint, that becomes an event.

Guru offers the opportunity to take an experience you have of somebody and transform that into a real life relationship with that person. You see someone’s ‘portfolio’ of statements on a particular topic you are interested in, and they warrant the status of guru is your eyes based on their quality. The closer you get to this person the more you will learn from them. So you decide to offer to take them for a pint. They either accept or decline, based on your portfolio and their availability, and should they graciously accept you have a new guru in your life who you have met from the Internet in a smooth and a reliable way. This has not happened before.

So what happens when 5, 50, or 500 people offer to buy one person a pint. Does this person have to make the sacrifices or logistical requirements necessary to make things fit, or does that money instead go to hiring a venue, bulk buying party supplies, and offering an experience for followers to connect to their guru, mingle with others on the same journey, and get drunk for cheap. This degree of independence and accessibility in event orchestration has also never happened before, online or offline. This is at the heart of the guru experience, as principle of progression to perfection is never more powerful than by the osmosis of those at varying stages along your same journey.
