BOOK PROPOSAL:
Summary
Every person has a Heart Virtue that is at the core of their
being; causing their values, beliefs and behaviors. There
is a hero living within each of us. Each of those heroes within
is committed to a Virtue and will die for it – and live
for it. That Virtue living in our Heart is the source of human
goosebumps (when the Heart Virtue is fulfilled) and rage experiences
(when their Heart Virtue is violated). Taking an inventory
of those goosebumps and rage experiences reveals our personal
spiritual purpose.

HEART VIRTUES UNIQUE SELLING
PROPOSITION = INSIDE-OUT:
One of the interesting paradoxes of Heart Virtues is that
they tend to sell themselves from the inside-out rather than
the outside-in. Let me explain: reason would suggest that
in order to market something successfully we must convince
our audience that they "need" our product - that
they must take our pill and that it will fill their emptiness
from the outside-in. Outside-in means: if we could convince
them that they will be happy when their outer appearance and
outer environment looks and feels successful, that THEY will
look and feel successful, we would tap into their "need"
for the product and sell them more. This is a survival based
model, working with the mechanics of the reptilian brain (the
part of us that seeks safety and contentment).
Heart Virtues works with the part of the brain that has more
to do with our desires to be, rather than our desires to have;
the part of us that yearns to grow, evolve and have more fulfilling
experiences (note that this part of us will not be content
with mere safety and will not settle for mediocrity).
I believe that for centuries marketing has habitually "sold"
to our "survivor" and not our "hero",
and that in the near future this will switch.
This switch began with the birth of quantum physics because
quantum physics suggests that the value of any product is
actually projected onto the product by the observer. If I
hold a book in my hand and ask six people "What is this
book worth?" they will each give a different answer because
the value of the book does not exist in the book, it exists
in the person and is projected onto the book. The beauty of
Heart Virtues is that they reveal what is most valuable to
the person (to their hero), which they are projecting onto
all the experiences and relationships of their life. I am
passionately curious about whether this inside-out paradigm
is the unique selling proposition of my book "Learn Our
Heart Virtue".
Imagine what it would be like if a product could actually
educate the consumer about this? (by the way, the word "education"
comes from the root word "educo" which means "to
bring out" or "to draw out").
