In January of this year, the week of the great ice storm here in Austin, Texas – I attended and participated at The Zero Limits Seminar presented by Dr. Joe Vitale and Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len – who just happen to be the co-authors of a book coming out this summer titled Zero Limits.  I’ve been aware of Ho’oponopono which is the book’s main topic for nearly a year and a half.  I’m very excited about the Launch of this book – in fact I started a forum comment on Amazon.com tonight about my experience at the three day Ho’oponopono retreat.

So, tonight I was surfing for some information about Ho’oponopono and discovered that one way that the Hawaiians describe it’s traditional process is that it’s an ancient form of conflict resolution.  Conflict resolution of course IS NEGOTIATION or at least one form of it.  I found it comforting that when I accept apprentices or train people in negotiations that I’m actually showing them my Ho’oponopono.  I’m not an expert in Ho’oponopono just in case someone thinks that’s what I’m suggesting – but I am an expert in Negotiations.

Do you have an interest in Ho’oponopono?  Are you aware of the book Zero Limits coming out this summer? Can you think of a situation where you deal with life and any other sentient creature besides yourself when you are not negotiating?  If so, leave a comment -share your thoughts.
