What Makes You Leave Your Path?

If you are working on living a life you most desire what makes you choose differently?

In the Chinese language, the word “crisis” is composed of two characters, one of which represents danger while the other represents opportunity. If that is not a quintessential definition of life in this moment, I don’t know what is.

Outside of ourselves, the world may be going mad. There is a LOT of crazy random stuff going on out there, from politics to climate change to economic madness to coronavirus and more.

All of these things can influence and impact your life and the path that you are taking for it. If you choose to let them.

Of course, there are things way beyond your control that will have an impact on you. For example, nobody chose to maintain social-distancing (to this degree) and self-quarantine that I know of. But the degree with which it impacts you is up to you to decide.

This matter created by things outside of your control impacts you only as far as you allow it to. It may not let you practice your chosen vocation, for example. But maybe instead of that being a danger, it could be an opportunity.

What do you do in the face of uncertainty?
