Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone

August 2nd, 2011

Personality traits are telling.  So are assessments.

Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone, Pablo Picasso (1881-1973).

Could there be a more Destination Life Lens™ saying?  I think not!

Personality traits of a Destination Life Lensesâ„¢ on a good day:

  • focused
  • eye on the goal
  • get things done

Personality traits of a Destination Life Lensesâ„¢ on a bad day:

  • intractable
  • stubbornly focused on a goal when the goal is no longer relevant (or there’s a better one around the corner)
  • bulldozer – ploughing ahead, ignoring process issues

What is perspective?

July 26th, 2011

It’s like magic.  When you live by yourself, all your annoying habits are gone!   ~ Merrill Markoe, U.S. television writer.

What we see as normal, natural and right can be annoying habits to others.

How quickly the view can change when the perspective changes.

What a Carrot Life Lens™ sees as beautifully organized can be a migraine inducing, impossible to understand nightmare to a Mountain Life Lens™.  Conversely what is a grand vision to a Mountain Life Lens™ can be a vague, confusing mess to a Carrot Life Lens™.

What a Destination Life Lens™ sees as a clear, articulated goal to can be too narrow and constricting for a Journey Life Lens™.  And what is a natural, unfolding process to a Journey Life Lens™ can be without direction and purpose to a Destination Life Lens™.

What a Go Life Lens™ sees as a fantastic, last minute opportunity can be foolhardy and impulsive to a Stop Life Lens™.  What is beautifully reflective to a Stop Life Lens™ can be navel gazing to a Go Life Lens™.

Where a Head Life Lens™ sees facts and figures, a Heart Life Lens™ sees lack of soul.  Yet what a Heart Life Lenses™ sees intuitively a Head Life Lens™ sees as lacking proof.

How do you see it?  What’s your perspective?

Changing perspective – from war to peace

July 21st, 2011

Changing perspective.  From war to peace.

From guns to doves.

From misunderstanding to understanding.

From positions to possibilities.

From one perspective to another.

Perspective both shadows and illuminates.  What’s your perspective done for you lately?
