I was thinking as I was running on my favorite trail this lovely, crisp fall day about the trouble we can get into if all we do is focus on our goals and not on the process we take to complete our goals. Sometimes, when you are so focused on getting something done you can forget about all the wonder that is around you while you are getting it done! And this can create so much anxiety for you. Being able to have a deep focus is a wonderful gift and something you can use your whole life-but.... focus should only be a signpost not the trail itself! There is always much more on the trail of life than your goal and focus. Once you stop and look around you will see what there is- a smile of a little child, the smell of a flower, the breeze of coming storm, the touch of your beloved-
Happy holidays and talk to you next week
