Riffing On Realness™

Next Steps Are Always There… When We Are

Episode Summary

In our world we often struggle with not knowing all the answers and feeling like we don’t have clear direction or solid next steps.  In this episode we explore what to do when you are at the proverbial crossroads or don’t see the path clearly laid out in front of you.  We particularly loved this quote this week which kicked off our conversation: “When we no longer know what to do, we have come to our real work and when we no longer know which way to go, we have begun our real journey.” -Wendell Berry

• The importance of allowing yourself to BE in the in-between
• What a ‘lack of clarity’ has to teach us
• Why it's OK to not always ‘know’ the answers
• The perils of instant gratificationLonging….why we try to avoid it, but shouldn’t
• Finding the treasure in the darkness
• The sweet spot of resistance 
• The role of GRIT over talent and intelligence

Please note in this episode we discovered, after the fact, that our audio was less than ideal. It was such a powerful conversation we hated to not share it.  Please forgive us for poor audio quality or audio disturbances…you just can’t recreate such things. Consider it proof we are keeping it real, always, and in all ways.
