Today (12-2-14, Tuesday) launches a month-long Quest for 2015. It’s 12 visionaries sharing food for the journey over 12 days in December, a community-building experiment for anyone who finds goal-setting and resolutions untenable approaches to creating a satisfying future. It’s convened by Jeffrey Davis and the team at Tracking Wonder. (More info and to join the quest, go to: trackingwonder.com/quest-2015.)
Day 1 of 12: #GrittyCompassion
Jennifer Louden is the gentle-hearted luminary who starts us on our Quest 2015 journey with this:
“Grit without compassion is just grind. What would be most fun to create this year? How can self-compassionate grit support you in that creating?” – See more at: http://trackingwonder.com/quest-2015/community/#sthash.nL0A3wRi.dpuf
Here’s what’s coming up for me in response:
Inner explorations and deep dives are where and how I thrive. Splashing around in the chaos is what I do for fun. Guiding people through the GAP, through the chaos, is where I shine. So I am always excited to start a new adventure inward. This collection of inner-sourced wisdom that emerges from this quest IS the heart of the fun and exploring that discovery of inner light through the process itself. (I love process!) As I prepare for 2015, adding this wisdom journey to my Medicine Bag is key to my inner quest and creative juju for 2015.
Notes to self/Instructions for the Journey:
Stick with the things that deeply nourish. Without beating myself up when I don’t.
Know that what nourishes in one season isn’t the right food for a different season. Choose appropriately.
Allow imperfections to play in the pool with inspiration. Love them both. And the pool.
Here’s to just moving forward. #quest2015
Onward.
