Parents Lead

I hope that it's okay for me to take a slight break from technology. I was listening to a podcast earlier today that talked about the power of subtraction. The idea was that sometimes our best option is to take something away when we're having difficulty handling some problem or situation. The specifics of the argument aren't particularly important here. The point I focused on is that we can make things too complicated to deal with. I think this is especially true when we can't see. We have something we want to do or maybe even need to do. We start thinking about it and consider this problem or that issue. It's probably just human nature for us to start listing all of the things that might go wrong, problems that might come up, reasons why it might be better to just avoid the pitfalls all together. Maybe we will put it off till later or perhaps chock it up to another one of those things we can't do since we can't see. The result is that our can't do list keeps getting longer and our can-do list gets shorter
