Sunday Reminder

Now that I have a year of daily blogging under my belt, I'm implementing a few changes. One of those changes will be "Sunday Reminders".

Each Sunday I'll find an older post pertaining to the current week's theme, polish it up, and re-share it.

Here's today's "Sunday Reminder":


Everyone Else is Wrong
[June 2, 2019]

It’s possible. Really, it is.

The status quo, though technically not a quantifiable entity, is the heaviest of all objects to move. It seems permanent. Eternal. And it seems everyone has bought in.

And it’s often times wrong. Unjust. Not sustainable. Hurtful for a few. Hurtful for many.

However, “Everyone else is wrong” is simply not a helpful phrase, regardless of how right you are. Regardless of how sure everyone else is that you aren’t!

A much better phrase (that really can mean the same thing!) is, “Here’s a solution.”

Knowing that everyone else is wrong about X is the easy part. I know it doesn’t feel that way because in discovering your truth, you were really shaken and felt like you were betraying the world you knew. You were.

The hard part—the part we need!—is your solution.

Dig in. Discover a solution. Take a risk. We’re ready to listen.
