Message from Winnie the Pooh
WELCOME TO THIS MAGIC MONDAY MOMENT
Kicking off your week with some thoughts around a favorite Disney quote (because in my world - Disney is life!).
original message date: 03/13/23
Happy Monday!
How many times do you stumble across an obstacle in life? Let’s narrow that down even more – thinking about the obstacles you bump into in your leadership or your business. Probably more than you care to count! Sometimes the obstacle isn’t a big deal. You can quickly pivot, make a change or come up with a simple solution.
And sometimes – it’s seems like a really big problem.
Here is what Winnie the Pooh says:
As you receive this week’s Magic Monday Message – I am on a Spring Break trip with my What if the unplanned situations, road bumps or obstacles aren’t actually problems?
What if you choose to think that they are happening as they are supposed to?
What if you believe that it’s all part of the experience and not a problem to be solved?
“Problems” can send your brain into overdrive. Your brain might kick into fear, scarcity or anxiety. From that place – you will likely resist, react (in an unhelpful way) or avoid. And the vicious cycle continues.
But when you choose to think of everything as part of the experience, your brain feels calmer. There may still be unknown, but with a side of “I’ll figure it out” on the side.
Because it’s not a problem.
Embrace the 50/50 of life instead of trying to crack the code. It’s a much more pleasant ride.
What shifts for you when you think of a current obstacle as an experience versus a problem?
Wishing you a wonderful week. You've got this!
