Sometimes you think you plan everything out.
And sometimes, things go awry anyway.
The Immaculate Dissection team had a rough morning yesterday.
If there was a roadblock, we hit it.
Taxis wouldn’t come.
When they did, they dropped us in the wrong place.
Printers couldn’t be accessed.
The hits kept coming.
I started breaking down as the roadblocks piled on.
Then, an amazing thing happened.
A seminar attendee, Jacqueline, handed me a Sydney phone book to tear before we started.
I showed the attendees how to use core stability and technique to rip the 700 pages.
I felt the stress of my morning go into that phone book.
As the pages yielded to my hands, I remembered why I taught this course in the first place.
If you have strength, you have control.
And if you have control, you can handle everything.
I re-learned a huge lesson yesterday.
You can lose your cool and feel broken down.
Or, you can channel strength into fuel and feel exhilarated.
As always, it’s your call.
