Courage is the power to let go of the familiar. Raymond Linquist.

The pandemic has brought with it massive change on so many levels, no more so than in the marketplace, forcefully driven by technology and social media.

It demands that you change your way of thinking – reliant not solely on your linear, left brain side nor with an over emphasis on the creative, right brain side, but in using both, unafraid to listen to your intuition, then taking that information and filtering it through your rational mind to a new space, between the two spheres. The middle space.

This is where you are at your best – following your hunches and then using your smarts and and experience to bring your work to successful fruition. It is there where the practical and meaningful solutions for today’s upended world reside.

It isn’t easy and it’s always a juggling act, but here are three tips to get you there:

1. Have the courage to think outside of the proverbial box. That’s where the status quo isn’t.
2. Build on a bigger future, even though you can’t always see it.
3. Stick to your convictions – and do your best work.

When you do, wonderful things can happen. Life sparkles when you are open to new possibilities – working in the middle space,  willing to let go of what isn’t working anymore and embrace the new.

Stay safe. Stay strong. Stay connected. 

I hope to see you here again soon.
