I believe in this man who will become president tomorrow.
I don't believe he is perfect, and I am not sure that I agree with all his ideas, but I believe for the first time in my life time, we have a leader who is a big-picture thinker and who is immensely intelligent, gathers information the way most of us breathe, and has answered the question "Am I enough?' in the affirmative, this latter creating a mind set that does not need to be liked, nor approved of. All of his considerable energy, then, can be brought to the task at hand.
If any of us kept our attention on our work, instead of being distracted by the environment, either external or internal, we too could consistently produce at a high level.
If any of us expunged our fear that drives the Myth of Inadequacy, what could we accomplish?
If we challenged the deeply held but erroneous fear that we in fact are less, what would our lives be like?
I believe we would be brilliant.

AMEN!!
ReplyDeleteReading this post, I got caught on the idea that being distracted by one's internal or external environment might decrease one's ability to produce. I always consider being aware of my environments (internal and external) to be integral to my work and to my ability to produce. I don't know how to live, how to exist in this world without being "distracted" by my environment. Is it a question of focus? The ability to take that "distracting" information in and channel it towards a purpose rather than it just being noise?
