Centered Selves

When we are off center it impacts our results.

Our solutions will seem 0ff-center as long as we are.

Let's start by centering ourselves. Restoring confidence. Maintaining balance.

Centered problem solving requires centered selves.

Imbalance

Too much pressure...or too little.

Too much stress...or not enough.

More problems are caused by imbalance than we realize.

Find the balance.

Center the attention.

Breathe.

Balance Requires Movement

Can you stand still on a bicycle? How about a unicycle? 

I remember trying to learn a trick during my Mustard Seed Theatre Company days that involved juggling while standing on a teeter-totter. "You've got to keep moving..." said Peter. "Standing still won't get it done."

In today's world balance is highly prized. We want balanced, centered lives where our work hats do not prevent us from wearing the other hats of our lives. But, balance doesn't require stasis. Instead, to stay balanced, we need to keep moving.

Steady, controlled, disciplined, calm, we move and find a rhythm that works.

How is your balance today?
