A quote I’m pondering

Do you have the patience to wait until your mud settles and the water is clear? Can you remain unmoving until the right action arises by itself?

Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching

An insight from conversation

Many people talk about the sacrifices they’ve made. My preference is to recognise the choices we’ve made.

Sacrifice feels like something that happens to us. Instead, if we can see it for a choice, then we free ourselves up to choose differently to make the change we want.

An important note: Choice is not without loss.

An action I’m taking

I used this hack over the weekend to help my 4 year ride her bike with no trainer wheels. Game changer. Saved my back and she loved it.

I wrapped a rolled up beach towel around her under her arms and, keeping both towel ends in my hands, ran along side her.

Here’s the explainer vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DU-i0knj1J4

Is there one of these that really stood out for you? I’d love to hear your thoughts or suggestions too.

I hope you have a great week ahead.

With love,
