The Journey

Yogi Berra said, “You gotta be careful if you don’t know where you’re going because you might not get there.” Despite his famously lopsided logic, I’m sure you get the drift. If you want to get somewhere, it helps if you know where somewhere is.

I’d like to take that one step further. If you want to get somewhere, knowing the starting point is just as critical (if not more) than knowing the end point. With your somewhere in mind, let’s take a look at where you actually are right now so you can create the shortest possible path from here to there.

“Ouches!”

As adults, we get plenty of ouches, too.

We lose jobs, experience failing businesses, deal with relationship break-ups, struggle through money issues…there is an endless list of mental, physical and emotional ouches that sting us regularly.

Very much like when we were kids.

But the problem with ouches now…as adults…is that we seem to have forgotten all the steps that got us through the falls in our early years. Sure, we have the “fall down” thing mastered (often a little too well for our own liking). Most of us have even developed professional status in “crying” (it’s called “whining” as an adult). And when it comes to “telling someone about the hurt,” it seems we have become quite adept at sharing with anybody who will listen.

However, it seems, that we have totally forgotten step four in the success guide:

Stress: Even the Illusion is Real

I’m a big fan of magic… and I especially love the tricks or illusions that involve reading other people’s minds… for example right now think of a number between 1 and 10… the first one that comes to mind… write it down…let me guess… you picked…

(answer at the end of the article J)

Here’s another one… In one word how would you describe your life in the last couple weeks? Let me guess… “BUSY” (amazing you say, not so much, seeing that almost everyone in our country feels that their lives are always “really busy.” Try it out… ask the next 10 people the above question and see how consistent the answer is. And that doesn’t mean it’s not true. On the contrary, in our fast paced world, it is simply a fact that most of us have so much on our plate, so many balls in the air, so many responsibilities, so much information to continually process, that we are often playing catch up from the moment we wake up in the morning.
