Rise to the Best Challenge Ever
#pandemicwordchallenge The best word is the hardest one
This has been the most challenging season of my life.
I’ve never seen a virus spread like this one. I’ve never seen so many people thrown out of work and forced to stay home (making finding work even harder). And perhaps worst of all, I’ve never seen anything so big it touches everybody I know.
But, here it is.
I feel blessed in the midst of all that’s going on. I’m still working, and doing something new at work. Nobody at home has the virus. And I’ve had to change the way I think about a lot of things (which is great, because I love thinking and do it all the time).
I won’t tell you about all that right now.
The #pandemicwordchallenge is all about narrowing it down to one word. I chose a challenging word. One that forces me to dig deep and evaluate whether I’m really serious about it. It sounds nice and fuzzy when you hear it, but practicing it can be the hardest thing you’ll ever do.
And perhaps the most rewarding.
Here’s the word that made work fun again
I read a book last week called It’s Not About You.
