AND LOVE ALWAYS WINS!

Hurt people hurt people. But, luckily, healed people heal others.  Safe people, shelter others. Free spirits, free others.  Enlighten people, illuminate others.

AND LOVE ALWAYS WINS!

REFLECTION:

  • A reminder… hurt people hurt people.  We need to remember this when someone is lashing out.  It is also helpful to know healed people heal others.
  • Do you offer healing for others? Shelter for others? Freedom for others? Illumination for others?
  • What can you do to be more loving today or offer healing or shelter for another?

IN SEARCH OF COMPETENCE

Learning is about becoming incompetent on our way to getting better.  If you’re not open to the tension that is caused by knowing you could do better, it’s unlikely you’re willing to do the work to get better.  As you’re doing that work, there’s the satisfaction it brings, but also the knowledge that just a moment ago, you weren’t any good.

REFLECTION:

  • Are you willing to try new things? 
  • How willing are you to risk being “incompetent” to learn?
  • Imagine the satisfaction from being able to do something that you thought you couldn’t or showed improvement by risk and action.
  • Try something new…

CLARIFY A CONCEPT

How to clarify a concept you can’t articulate:

  1.  Change mediums.  Draw it.  Photograph it.  Sing it.
  2.  Change levels.  Explain what is one level up (bigger picture) or one level down (finer details).
  3.  Change fields.  What would this concept look like in different fields?

REFLECTION:

  • Is there a concept or situation you are challenged by?
  • What if you tried another approach?
  • Todays message from James Clear offers a new roadmap of possibility… try one or all the steps.
