Embrace the known and equally embrace the unknown.
The standard plan is to act as if one of these isn’t there: play dumb with truth and principles or deny that change is on the horizon.
However, when we are present with how things truly are, all things that could be then become possible.
Few things hurt like we thought they would.
The speech you were dreading to give. The infamous flu shot. The 15 year mortgage. Pausing for breakfast. And maybe the most avoided of all, vulnerability.
It’s those things we didn’t see coming in our peripheral that bear the most pain.
Awareness, we need you.
In business, find customers.
In relationships, find connection.
In life, find your music.
Just how bright can you make today?
Quite bright if you’re purposeful. You do this by being full of purpose.
Just how radiant can you find today?
Very radiant if you look for what’s wonderful. You get full of wonder when you fill yourself with wonder.
How much illumination can you pull from today?
An endless amount when you’re willing to be meaningful in your moments. We are all metaphors. What shadow do you cast?
Celebrating Possibility > Succumbing to the Unknown.
Alas, full days lead to full lives and even brighter futures.
People.
Books.
Ideas.
Think of them as such, find your way, handle them with care, and may the odds be in your favor.
