I asked someone two days ago to tell me his greatest need. Not a grandiose lifelong need, but his greatest real need. Right now. This moment. I didn’t expect his answer:
“Calmness.”
Being that I’m in his life, I couldn’t help but wonder if I am, on the whole, meeting his need for calm, or detracting from it. Then yesterday, I saw THIS. A simple post by Seth Godin, that ended up feeling like the “2″ of a 1-2 punch.
Where I want to be and where I currently stand aren’t one and the same plot point. But I hope I’m moving that general direction.
How about you?
And did you notice that generosity and calmness seem to work well together?
i wish there were descriptions in the other quadrants as well.
(i’ll email you soon…)
I need those too. I gave you an award on my blog, so check it out.
