Insights from Bob & Carla
“Genius does what it must, and talent does what it can.”
This quote from Owen Meredith begs the question,
“What must you do?” If you have a drive to do something,
it is a clue to your genius.
Many people confuse genius with the intellect. But
everyone has something that they do extremely well.
This is your genius. Are you a good listener? Are you a
compassionate? Are you an athlete? Are you a good
cook?
Genius does what it must. And when we express our
genius, our spiritual gift, we are more alive than ever
before. What are you waiting for?
Live Fully, Love Lavishly, and Be All You Can Be:
Bob and Carla (the Double-Revs)

FILM SHOWING OF “I AM—The Shift is

This film is written and directed by Tom Shadyac who

Detective”, and “The Nutty Professor.” The Director asks
some of today’s significant minds (Desmond Tutu and
Noam Chomsky to name two) “What’s wrong with our
world, and what can we do about it?” After he
experienced a serious accident and wasn't’t sure if he
would live, he began a journey that included selling a
17,000 sq ft mansion, art and private jets, to live a
simpler, more meaningful life. This film is part of that
journey.
