“In fact, the only thing that’s truly under our control is where, when, and how we repeatedly direct our attention—and whether we’re directing it consciously.”

“Yet for us to reach our full potential, we need to see our shadows clearly and then choose to learn, grow, and change. Who we’ll become in the future always begins with the total awareness and acceptance of who we are right now. In turn, we can stop wasting energy denying what’s already here—freeing us to see clearly what’s happening and then respond effectively. Courage also helps us take responsibility for and not second-guess previous choices. If wisdom was present, courage supports us in trusting that it was the right choice—regardless of how things turned out later. And if wisdom wasn’t present when we made the initial choice, courage helps us learn from the situation so we can make wiser choices going forward.”

“Uncertainty, complexity, volatility, and ambiguity are “symbolic threats,” meaning that they rarely require decisions involving mortal danger to our physical well-being right now.”
