Put it down, flip it, and reverse it.

Contribution is the new consumption.

This backwards reality is the opposite of what we’ve been taught, and yet the leaders of tomorrow – in any field – are starting to understand and see this as the way.

Once you’ve poured something out only then will you have made room to soak something in.

Yes, to get it right, we’re going to have to get it backwards.

LTMP Podcast 6: Wonder, Waltz, & Awe > Win, Lose, or Draw

LTMP Podcast 6

In this episode we talk about losing the proverbial scorecard and opening our lives to the possibility and abundance that surrounds us when we do the hard work of creating meaningful lives.

Book:

This week’s book is Victor Frankl’s, Man’s Search for Meaning. A classic book that seems to always speak to me at every season of life.


Song: Stargazer by Ashton Gustafson

This week’s song and benediction is a song that I wrote a couple of years back.


As you approach this week, may you pause by the orchid. Listen to the bluebird sing. And be love.

Marbling

Walk with me here.

Take 5 globs of different colored play-doh.

And let’s name them the colors of health, relationships, passion, growth, and contribution.

Now take those five colors and roll them into the shape of a ball.

Notice the marbling?

You’re staring at the ideal metaphor of what you want your days to look and feel like.

Four words: now go do that.
