Bunker Roy speaks of the Barefoot Movement in Rajasthan, India, where an extraordinary school teaches rural women and men -- many of them illiterate -- to become solar engineers, artisans, dentists and doctors in their own villages.

He defines a professional as, "someone who is a combination of competence, confidence, and belief." He believes that, "knowledge and skills are relevant and universal." You are, "certified by the people you serve. You don't need a certificate." And, "we have all our solutions."
As I heard him speak I could feel the resemblance to LOP in what he was saying:
-- A professional is 1/3 skill, but 2/3s knowing and trusting who I really am (WIRA).
-- That what is relevant and important and feels good to one person, is going to be relevant and important and feel good for others.
-- You don't need to justify yourself with a certificate. Your success, by you being who you really are, will be 'certified' by those who resonate with what you are offering.
-- And, that our answers are within.
Bunker Roy is witnessing the success of us remembering, believing in and expressing who we really are. I know we can do it too.
