🦊 TREE 369: “We’ve never done it that way before” is…
Throwback Thursday – TREE 57
One.
“We’ve never done it that way before” is an invitation.
It’s an invitation to growth, to progress, to innovation, to improvement, to flexibility, possibly to failure, always to learning.
My personal, natural response to another person’s suggestion that we do things a new way is to throw back all the reasons why we shouldn’t. The response I work on cultivating is openness to new ways of doing things, even things I’m good at.
When I treat “We’ve never done it that way before” as an invitation, it makes my life richer and more interesting.
Two.
Slightly different from the one I played with as a kid.
Three.
Röyksopp and Alison Goldfrapp have been in the electronic music game for a long time and the awesomeness is not diminishing. Also, double double P.
Tomorrow in FIELD GUIDE, Skyler’s only gone and gotten a Whole Thing from the head of book preservation at the Smithsonian Institution of the You Ess of America! (!!!)
Grow slowly
Jeff
What we resist, persists. I’m focused and enrolled in a class for learning not to resist what is. It’s what you described, Jeff. My desire is to be more open to life. I’m getting there but I want more. Anyone else after the extra peace this affords?
