Wonderful hour-long conversation with family member yesterday while walking back from the gym, which extended to a tranquil spot on our homeowner’s dock.
Pause and reflect…
That which is most important is hidden because of its simplicity and familiarity.
As my son and i discussed a situation the family member is having now, we can clearly see the best way for two anxious people to move forward – discuss things adult to adult, with an open mind, filled with curiosity, patience, and optimism.
In the phone call i had with the family member there is literally nothing but dread, anxiety, uncertainty, and fear. Apparently with both parties.
My son and i marvel at the paradox and quietly wonder as this is typed if there are personal blind spots that others can easily see.
Also can’t help but wonder if anyone would be kind enough to point them out and help me see them.

Read yesterday’s message in the next paragraph…
You will never reach your potential, and discover your purpose, by staying in your comfort zone.
Now, read today’s version, rewritten with an approach mindset rather than an avoidance mindset (above)…
You will always reach your potential, and discover your purpose, by getting out of your comfort zone.
Feel the difference?
In the last few weeks, it’s been nagging me that my traditional approach leads with avoidance. Casually, yet with decent intentionality, i’ve been playing around with moving to an approach mindset. My clock is ticking (so is everyone’s) and i’d like to transform in a way i never have.
