So often the missing ingredient in our decision making.
Tap into it.
Bring it to the table.
Mix it in.
It will serve you, and them, right.
Leadership recalls.
The more you dig into the universe the more you begin to to notice its’ harmony, cadence, and eternal tone. And when you start to see the lines and know the dots of reality that is when the music in-between the two becomes more and more electric.
Think of the last stranger you crossed paths with that left you better than when you found them. Most likely, they were awake – present – or connected with some idea, action, or insight into reality that you never knew of or never had a proper introduction with.
No matter the season you find yourself in, an awake soul is always a refreshing encounter. They move us to melt the joy frozen in winter, bloom a better bloom in the spring, surf the summer shores, and the soak in the re-energy of autumn as it is intended.
3 Things:
1) If we’re going to be strangers to approximately 7.3 billion people, let’s at least be ones that glow.
2) The awake conversation always starts in the eyes. Show me the direction of your eyes and I’ll show you the direction of your life.
3) “Therefore we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but what is unseen…”
You can use your notes now.
Just don’t forget to be writing them down.
Regards,
Your tomorrows
PS – Don’t forget to watch Letterman tonight.
There’s a tree at 2305 Speedway, the home I grew up in, that still bears the carvings I engraved into it as young boy.
That tree is now a metaphor that I think about quite often.
Few things will carve deeper into the souls we cross, the moments we experience, and the days we’re given than the music we create and offer back to the universe.
And while we’re on the subject of trees, here’s a beautiful writing on the slow and enlightening beauty that trees give us.
When you see things as they are – not as you want them to be – you are removing their cover and coming to know them fully and see the language, meaning, and truths under their skin.
Purple is hard to know without first understanding red and blue.
