What’s the soul say?

The easy thing to do is to look around at those nearby to get a sense of what you should be doing. And if you’re lucky (or maybe not so lucky) they’ll even share with you why you should be doing what they’re doing or suggesting.

You don’t want their why. And their what will never be yours.

And then there is the difficult work that is actually coming to grips with what you want. Those moments we look to the stars, then consult the mirror, and then confirm with Destiny that these are the dots we are to be connecting. Herein lies the hardest work, conversation, and commitment we’ll ever face.

But it’s worth it.

You are worth it.

This is worth it.

AKA. be. do. have.

AKA. Begin with the end in mind.

AKA. Surprise, there are no surprises.

Sometimes we need to pause the music to get the music.

Yet vulnerability is the dirt where possibility grows and blooms into stories that get shared, get talked about, and connect us.

The Gardener’s Garden

In a presentation not long ago, I posed the question, “How does your garden grow?” This was a metaphorical question posed to engage the audience into truly questioning the root – no pun intended – of what it takes to grow and produce the meaning and purpose we all want out of our lives, relationships, and businesses.

The session concluded with a simple thought….the gardener must garden.

The Gardener’s Garden sparked some more thoughts here.
