Dis-covering.

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.

With or Without Metaphor(s)

You can live without them. Most do.

And there’s the choice to live with them. But this choice has it’s choices too.

You can choose to experience the world as a battlefield or as a poem.

You can see your days as a pass or fail test or a painting.

In the end, we need you to choose to live with metaphor(s) and then we need you to choose subtitles with possibility over pessimism.

The Choice

Will you chase or will you attract?

This is a giant question for us and the choices here could not be more different.

Think of the implications here for all things in our lives, relationships, and businesses.

The chase will always leave you out of breath, tired, and panting. Even if you catch it, whatever it is will probably have to be juggled and, unfortunately, dropped.

And then there’s attraction which leads to a waltz and something (a human, an experience, or a moment) you can hold.

So what’s it going to be? The dance or the rat race?

Your call.
