60 Seconds for Tips on Thursday: Take Time to Be Alone.

Episode Summary

Taking the time to sit awhile and think will bring a journey when you least expect it!

Episode Notes

Hello to listening in Bogota, Columbia, South America!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is 60 Seconds, your daily dose of hope, imagination, wisdom, stories, practical tips, and general riffing on this and that.

As the saying goes, “Never be afraid to sit awhile and think.” [Lorraine Hansberry]

I’d take it 1 step further: Welcome the opportunity to sit awhile and just be alone, to muse, to daydream.

What comes out of such aloneness? Who can say. Perhaps you will look at what’s held you back. Perhaps you will summon the courage to take a step from dream to action. Perhaps you’ll announce the start of a journey: Now! The time has come. I am ready. I am going to do this!

If you are ready, what will you say about taking this step? To whom will you say it?  

Practical Tip: For those of us who are still waiting for that Beckoning to Begin, know this: There will come a time - very soon - when something captivates you and you, too, will be resolved to set out. Meanwhile, “Never be afraid to sit awhile and think.” because the aloneness there will bring a journey when you least expect it.
