Here's today's question: When do patience,
persistence, and determination morph into stubbornness?
How do we mark that boundary between
hitting our heads against the wall and giving up too soon?
An interesting and important question,
right?
On the one side strength, on the other
side rigidity…
DANCE WITH IT! EXPERIENTIAL APPS
An opportunity to experiment with some fun ideas…
FEEL THE DIFFERENCE!
Here's an interesting
way of thinking about these feelings:
Persistence,
patience and determination have a certain 'color' and 'sound' - a feeling of
'Yes!
Stubbornness is a
different 'color'.
Can you let yourself
experience that difference?
Imagine giving a
color to each of these emotional states.
What would it be?
Now imagine giving
them a sound.
Try this until you hit
something that feels right.
Try humming
it.
The idea is that the sound or color becomes almost automatic, and gives
you an emotional heads up.
The goal
is to help you experience when you shift from healthy and strong to rigid and stultifying.
