Everyday choices - especially in business - can feel like a test between protecting what’s yours and staying true to your values. But how do you know if your actions come from authentic power or from fear? In this episode, Gary Zukav answers a listener’s question about dealing with someone who seems deceitful in business. His response reveals the deeper difference between acting from fear and acting from love.


Gary explains that fear always separates - through blame, judgment, or superiority - while love unites and creates authentic power. Even when protecting yourself and your livelihood is necessary, the intention behind your actions determines whether you are contributing to harmony or to painful consequences.


The key takeaway is that it isn’t the circumstance that matters most, but the conscious intention you bring to it. If your actions flow from appreciation, gratitude, and love, you are creating authentic power. If they arise from blame, worry, or judgment, you are creating a world of painful consequences from a place of fear.
