So joyful and thankful, even though it seemed unappreciated?

One conversation, two people, one profoundly changed (it was me). Although the intent was to help change the other.

 

Find the good in every situation. It becomes habit, and our joy becomes prolific.

So thankful that a friend and I had an intense, honest, loving, two-hour dinner conversation, prompted by the friend’s question, “Any feedback?”

It hit me two days later that the risk I took – and the content provided – to share ‘brutally honest’ feedback was never acknowledged.

No, “Thank you Jeff for sharing that with me. I truly appreciate you being so completely and utterly honest and insightful.”

Doesn’t matter.

What matters is I answered the question fully and completely.

Finally.

I can now move on, gratefully.

How did yesterday feel?

How did yesterday go?

Better than expected?

About what we expected?

Worse than expected?

Massive weather delays across the eastern states. Delayed four hours.

One approach is to expect things to be bumpy everyday.

It’s life, after all.

Yesterday went much better than expected because nothing threw me off.

Expecting worst case scenario manages expectations in stormy weather.

The truth about this voice in our head

Magic Kingdom Halloween scarecrow
Shut up, say it ain’t so. That’s a scary thought, eh?

 

The voice in our head says, “This will change people’s lives”.

Agreed.

But.

But many don’t want to change.

They say they do.

But.

So why do we keep trying?
