Reflections from the Key to Everything!

I thought I knew a lot, but do I really? This was just the first thought provoking notion that popped into my head as our training began. I’ve been in Human Resources for 16 years. I’ve lived in three countries and have an open mind that has been my ‘mantra’ for everything. It has truly allowed me to have experiences that are far beyond what I could have ever imagined. I’ve focus on the journey and not the destination for most of my life. With that being said, I would say I am pretty knowledgeable…correct?

The Key to Everything is simple, yet it questioned my thinking. I’ve heard the saying “think about your thinking” from a biblical perspective and it holds true even more so today in business, relationships, conflict, my community, social media, parenting and the list goes on. The inputs that are constantly being filtered into my head, thoughts and internal processing shape my perspective and in turn, shape how I speak to others, my husband, my children, my family members, my clients, and everyone I come into contact with.

The awareness of this reality is so enlightening, yet so powerful! It has given me a new set of eyes as 2020 slowly comes to an end, and as I’ve struggled with the many challenges that this season has brought to my lap. The timing of this 3 Day Course is not by chance. The quote below sums up where my head and heart are after Day 1. Stay tuned for more insights…

“I choose to live by choice, not by chance; to make changes, not excuses; to be motivated, not manipulated; to be useful, not used; to excel, not to compete. I choose self-esteem, not self-pity. I choose to listen to my inner voice, not the random opinion of others. I choose to be me.”
