The shift from Social Entrepreneurship

Many times I ask myself how to best explain the Positive IMPACT Movement and its community “PiMOV” to Social Entrepreneurs. Sometimes certain distortion appears in their point of view that doesn’t allow them to see beyond Social Entrepreneurship into who they are and what they want to create.

The Positive iMPACT Movement connects change makers (Socially-Conscious Change Makers) who are committed in creating their projects through their individual evolution, as well as in sharing and collaborating with like-minded others to collectively grow and positively impact through mutual empowerment, inspiration and support.

I understand that not everybody resonates with this. At the end, not everybody is a Socially-Conscious Change Maker (yet) and there are many who are still afraid to show themselves as such. It is safer to keep themselves identified as a Social Entrepreneur, rather than as someone who creates their project from the inside-out. Following external guidelines from what society dictates, is easier than confronting your truth that is not entirely aligned to the Social Entrepreneurship status quo. There is still some taboo about personal evolution and spirituality. Luckily, the situation is changing as many more share their spiritual growth and experiences day by day.

We are all intuitive human-beings, whether we like it or not. We know what happens around us, and we are also capable of listening to what happens inside of us.

We Socially-Conscious Change Makers are learning to listen deeper to our inside to create our outside. We adjust our inner world by what we receive from the outer world, and again, we nurture our outside, our creations, through our inner world. We do this individually and through community.

As a Socially-Conscious Change Maker who has followed the Social Entrepreneurship guidelines, it took me a while to understand that I am not a Social Entrepreneur as defined by society… I have gone through a considerable evolution in the last 5 years (and much more to go!), with my ups and downs, that believing that I have managed to get into a stage where I have developed a clearer vision and approach is actually somehow surprising. But here I am, co-creating with others like me a community that connects, empowers and collaborates for our individual and collective positive impact to change the world through our own change; change starts from within!

We are here to show to the world the magnificence of the human-being! This world is created by humans like you and me, who have the freedom and power to be who they are and create what they love, individually and collectively. We are here to lead this shift from Social Entrepreneurship into Socially-Conscious iMPACT Making by being and coming together to co-create and co-evolve the change we want to see in this world. This is the Positive iMPACT Movement.

Evolution - Community - iMPACT
