Breakdown. At the time it’s not great, the world as you know it caves in, in the short term there’s darkness and no light at the end of the tunnel. But it’s an opportunity to rebuild with stronger foundations. It highlights the weaknesses, unhelpful thinking, beliefs and behaviours.
This is the biggest breakdown that I’ve witnessed. If we’re couragous we can change what hasn’t worked and build a better world.
I, myself, have been sucked in by the media and society lately. Even the most resilient people are being rattled. Perspective is important, it’s easy to fall into the thoughts and behaviours of the masses. It takes courage to walk against the tide. I need to focus on gratitude and need to have empathy for those that are scared. It’s not productive to judge or criticise. What can I change? Only my thoughts and my behavior.
As the saying goes, be the change that you want to see. Lead by example.
