Going Love First
A call to action for those who dare to dream of a better world.
Walk the path of Love with us, and you will find your way to a better world.
The world we live in isn’t the world we know is possible.
We could be swimming with dolphins in clean oceans…
Waving to otters in thriving rivers…
Surrounded by butterflies in wildflower meadows.
Instead, we deal with the pain of merely existing in our current world.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
We are not just consumers and cogs of crude matter in an insatiable profit machine.
We are luminous beings. Creators!
We are divine life force in motion.
It’s time to remember who we are.
It’s time to build a different world—guided not by Power and Profit, but by Love.
Love that uplifts us, inspires us, and heals our wounds.
Love that bridges the divides and helps us understand each other.
Love that connects us to the divine within, and ignites the best in all of us.
So if you’re ready to begin a brighter chapter in your life…
…and write a better story for humanity moving forward…
…and build the life of your dreams while doing so…
Then this is your invitation to Go Love First.
What it means to ‘Go Love First’
To Go Love First means making a commitment to Love.
Not the soft, passive, peace-keeping love of fairy tales…
But a fierce, grounded, peace-creating Love that honors life, truth, and justice for all.
It’s about putting People and Planet above Power and Profit, and creating a life—and a world—aligned with the cosmic current of Universal Love.
It means taking on the shared identity of being a Love First Person, in addition to any and all other ways you identify.
It means taking a stand and making a declaration — like a pledge or a vow, signaling that you are here to see and create a world that works for everyone, and wherein everyone is empowered to live, heal, and thrive freely.
It means becoming part of something bigger, a movement of people who eagerly want to see a kinder, gentler, more sustainable and regenerative world. A world made with Love, First.
It was One Small Step for mankind that represented a giant leap.
It takes three small steps to radically change humanity’s future for the better.
Step 1: Commit to Love
Make the decision by saying the following out loud to yourself:
I commit to Love!
Making the commitment is crucial. These aren’t just some cool ideas for bettering your life with; it’s a devotion to inner and outer world transformation, with intention and purpose.
If this is all you do, you will have already made a huge difference in your life and the lives of those around you.
But if you are ready to go All In on Love First, do the following as well:
Step 2: Declare yourself a Love First Person
Make it known to your family and friends, your community, the world…but above all, make a declaration for yourself. You are someone who is creating their dream life with Love as the foundation.
The “Love First” prefix signals that you are practicing Love First principles and values in your life as a Person. You can also prefix ‘Love First’ to any identity: be a Love First Mom, a Love First Engineer, a Love First Atheist or Christian, or even a Love First Red Socks Fan.
This is your identity. Your orientation. Your new compass.
Let Love guide the way.
Step 3: Prioritize People & Planet over power & profit
In every decision. Every purchase. Every policy. Every conversation.
As best as you can—and without shame, blame, or guilt for the times you can’t.
Live in alignment. Breathe it. Vote it. Embody it.
This is your revolution. It begins in the heart.
A Template for your declaration
Copy-paste the following statements, and edit any of the paragraphs to suit your personal feelings and expression as you wish. The headings (lines with hearts) should be left intact.
💖 I am Going Love First
I commit to Love, in all that I do, to the best of my abilities.
I am making this declaration because I believe in a world where we teach and practice Love-centric ways of living together. I believe in a world where humanity stewards nature and protects the lands we’re living off of. I believe in a world where we can work together to face the truth, and heal what’s broken.
And I believe that Love First is a movement and philosophy that can help us create this world.
💖 I am a Love First Person
I aim to practice the values, principles, and teachings of Love First in my everyday life, in every aspect of my life.
I understand that as additional teachings are released, I may find myself in greater or lesser alignment with some, and I appreciate that the spirit of Love First allows me to be selective and cherry-pick what works for me, with no requirement to practice all of it.
💖 I consider People & Planet more important than power & profit
I will channel my decisions through an ethical lens that prioritizes the lives and sustainability of People and Planet over the accumulation of power and profit.
I believe that embodying this priority order will help us gradually move towards a civilization with Love as its core principle, ensuring the survival and thriving of the human race and the planet and all of its myriad, beautiful flora and fauna.
💜 My Personal Story
As the creator of Love First, I have committed the entire rest of my life to it. This is my life’s work and my mission, and I am here to help you on your journey towards becoming your best self, and to help us all create a better world together.
