I call it stream thinking. Because I believe in the power of now. The challenge is to write one page. 10 minutes only. No editing. Whatever you feel in the moment. Drop the writing instrument then walk away. On a different day we get to talk about it. This week’s subject hits us all in the heart. What we think we know versus what we want to know. What do we really know? What are we knowingly doing about it? This tends to serve as a trigger for many. It sends emotions toward challenge and change or into moments of taking cover. The investment of energy is personal and isn’t easy to pull off. If something or someone has moved into your tight circle, the objective should always be to put peace first. As a third degree Black Belt this was shoved deeply into our thinking and reaction process. It wasn’t to train like warriors on a headhunt. The mission should always be to put peace ahead of all things. There can’t be a reason to find strength in defense. But in the real world of the everyday situation the design of so many thinking patterns is fed by how others violate our space. We’re ready to use what we want to know as a reason to resurface what’s now become the newer connection. Taking what we know and putting value in it as a tool. I love it when people say, “I’ve got nothing to complain about.” I instantly respond, “But if you did. What would it be?” The usual response is, “Let’s not go there.” Because we know! Learning how to collaborate with other passerby’s is vital in the way of generating enough space to stop stepping on what others know about you. I’m blown away with how a simple nametag changes the direction of what a person may think they know. On the frontline, I’m not the radio guy. I don’t use his name. People approach me thinking they know. One look at the nametag and it’s a different conversation. How often do you do the same? No matter where you travel the information held helps pave the way until the edge of the surface fails to put into play because you didn’t know the entire story. Do you keep walking or get to know something new?
