Perspective is everything.
Have you ever been in a situation where something made you sad, mad, upset…until you gathered a little more information, and you suddenly had a fresh set of eyes, and could understand what happened more fully? That full view, that correct perspective changes things, doesn't it?
It's true with so many things in our lives. Our perspectives on kids, marriage, school, our homes, our friendships, the way we think other people feel about us, the way we feel about other people - truly, the possibilities are endless! Today, as we approach the end of 2022 at breakneck speed, I want to challenge you to shift your perspective.
We are often victims of our own unmet expectations - the way we think that things should be - and when reality and our expectations don’t line up, we struggle to reconcile what is with what we want it to be. I want to encourage you to try to look at that sticky situation, that expectation that you can't seem to release, that thing that's causing you stress…pick that thing up and examine it from all angles. Gather more information if you need to. Put on a fresh pair of perspective spectacles, and see what changes!
Seriously.
Maverick and Goose want you to know that appearances can be deceiving. What appears to be true at first glance, may not be what's happening at all…
