A client and I explored the concept of power and considering life as a form of practice rather than a test to get right or a challenge to achieve the ultimate result. What if all of us chose to practice skills and explore the learning that emerged with the goal of making a small change? Act, reflect, shift. Act, reflect, shift. Sounds simple, right?

What if we saw life as a journey witha lot of travel from which to grow and few destinations? Would you make different choices? How might this shift that inner dialogue with the judge-like part of ourselves that yearns for success and is thin on encouragement and celebrations?

If you took one step toward this, what would it be?
