Think Productive Australia / NZ’s Post

A few minutes each day can change the course of your life by focusing on the right inputs that align with your life plan.

What’s YOUR reaction when “life” happens? Do you freak out, or can you “flip the switch”, to choose your best, most Heroic response? If you (like I used to, years ago), just lose your mind, please understand that that is a choice. Viktor Frankl, the Holocaust survivor and author of Man’s Search for Meaning, wrote, “Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” Dr. Frankl saw that space, some call it the gap, as the place for the exercising of one of a person’s true freedoms, that of choosing our attitude at any given moment. The next time there is an event, to which you’ve previously responded to in a way that doesn’t match who you wish to be at your best, or who you’re becoming, then take a pause. No judgement is necessary in so many cases, so take you time. Reflect on how you want to react or respond, from the virtues which best exemplify your best self. Then, do that. How does that feel? Seriously, how does it feel to act in an integrated way, in a way most aligned with your best, most Heroic self? And if you’re just imagining at this point and have yet to exercise this freedom, how do you think it would feel? Share in the comments below, or feel free to DM me, if that works best for you.
