It is usually the time where the fear meter hits 10 out of 10. The fear stems from the absolutes\, the black and white thinking. You know\, all or nothing\, win or lose\, right or wrong\, good or bad. It's a very common and understandable response\, but what if there were answers that allowed us to think in a more colorful way? Colors that opened up our minds and all of our senses to possibilities. \n What if we gave ourselves permission to explore without shackling our minds and thoughts to just one way or another? \n Have you ever gotten in your car plugged in Waze or Google maps\, you?ve got in your favorite audiobook or playlist and you are ready to go? You start driving and halfway in the trip\, suddenly\, ?Waze has noticed a slow down in 5 miles and is rerouting you.? Never\, ever\, have I thought\, ?Oh my gosh that is so great\, I can?t wait to be detoured.? I usually get an attitude and then I follow the detour. \n What if when we are ?derailed? or we course correct\, we see it as an opportunity to see so much more than we could have ever imagined\, and that may inform us of a different or even better route? \n What if we saw value in the course corrections of life? \n What would happen if it opened up a sense of wonder for us\, instead of a burden\, a waste of time\, a fly in the ointment? \n What if we strengthened our agility to pivot like an athlete that is heading to score a basket\, touchdown or goal\, instead of being like the tin man in The Wizard of Oz who rusts every time it rains and is rendered immobile? \n What if that agility informed us of possibilities\, solutions\, experiences\, and learnings that we can?t see or envision? \n What if the course corrections in our lives were just reroutes to our greatest joys?\n\nIngrid Becton Background\n\nIngrid Becton is the President and co-founder of George Washington Street Partners\, an executive leadership and performance coaching firm.
