The mind follows your lead

I am often surprised by how quickly I can pull myself, or my client, out of the spiral down into the depths of despair by asking them for a wee bit of focus and one small action.

Just consider this question:

What is one thing you can do in this hour, day, or week that will give you a sense of delight + wonder?

Why this question you might ask?  Because it gives your mind a job.

And with that directive the mind follows your lead, rather than the other way around.

Simple + true.
