Scattered

For a couple of days I had the opportunity to consult with a guy about his business and what he was hoping to accomplish. One of the most interesting things about our two 4-hour sessions was focus. I wanted to offer clarity and focus to him and his business purpose and objectives. What he wanted was a sounding board, someone to bounce his ideas off of. About an hour into the first session it was as if he simply wanted a yes man. Someone to offer confirmation that what he’d been planning was exactly what he should implement. I may have been willing to be a yes man but none, not one of his plans/proposals were documented. Our meeting reminded me of myself several years ago.

Several years ago I was without focus. I was scattered with great intent and no direction. I got focused, developed my purpose. Refined my purpose, committed it to memory and developed a plan for its attainment. Since then clarity has become my ally. I move with purpose most times. For the past couple of weeks my plans has evolved and morphed into something other than the original.

Today, Monday, April 29, 2019, I am grateful that:

I have focus and clarity. For decades I was a ship adrift. No direction, only a port or origin but no destination.

I have a plan to fulfill my purpose. The plan has changed but with each amendment a lesson is learned and the learning curve is lessened.

I am willing share my experience with those facing the same challenges as my prior self. Whether or not my experience is put to use is not my concern. I have met my responsibility by offering knowledge(I used to think differently).

Find Your Purpose. Be Impactful!
