#089 - ELIXIR Project: Fear no one but truth
What's your desire?
Ask children what they desire and they'll tell you. It's no secret to them or anybody else. A bigger question is, do they see their desire fulfilled?
Often times, the reality is no. They may simply move on to the next thing out of boredom or difficulty, but are you and I that different?
Desire without deadlines are simply pipe dreams.
A secret of high performance are deadlines.
What's your deadline?
Confession! In one sense I hate deadlines. I know that when I put a date out there, then I'm on the hook. If I fail to deliver, than in a way I've failed.
In another sense, I love deadlines. I know without them I'd never get anything done. They force me to focus my attention and amplify my energy. More on this topic in episode 89.
Fear no one, but truth.
In the second part of the episode, we find Sienna and her friends kidnapped and inside a transport vehicle. Sienna is the first to wake up. She meets ELIXIR's spokesperson Tilda. Here's that interaction:
But then I find them—or maybe they find me.
Unmistakably blue, ignited by a bottomless fire. Tilda's gaze pierces me, unwrapping every fiber and undressing every mask. Then she speaks again, her voice a blend of seduction and mystery, dripping with hypnotic intonation:
“Please let me offer an apology and congratulations. First the apology. Although I’m unsure of the exact measures administered to bring you to ELIXIR, I’m assuming they were somewhat extreme. Understand, our current campaign against SWARM demands we adhere to the highest levels of security. We could not jeopardize our Project at this time by providing details about your relocation to you or your families. In the future, you will know the whole truth.
“And now for the congratulations. Unbeknownst to you, we’ve been monitoring you for quite some time. We’ll share more on this topic when you arrive. You are one of twelve clerics we have recruited from all corners of the world to assist in the overthrow of SWARM. Soon you will become household names.
“I’m sure you have questions. But rest assured, ELIXIR has the answers—and in time you will, too. Breathe deeply. I know the angst you taste. I was once recruited by ELIXIR, too. I chose to accept the call for my country, my family, and myself. Today my life is forever changed.
“I look forward to meeting you very soon. Remember, fear no one but truth.”
Should Sienna trust Tilda or should she run the other way?
