It was certainly a crazy and busy week for me and business. I did not get a chance to even think about unplugging and taking a few days for myself to drop off the network.
I did however had the concept of religion and science as sisters run through my head. I have never thought of the two related, and it is definitely stretching my mind to new ideas. That is what the MKE is supposed to do. Challenge your mind and what you currently think, give you ideas but not influence you. As this thought bounces around in my head, I have really come to appreciate just how much work has gone into this course and how hard it must be to teach but not influence or tell us what to think. I still struggle with being the unopinionated observer, but this new revelation has me doubling down on keeping my opinions quiet in my head.
This leads me to the uneasy idea of tuning everything out and just be alone with my thoughts. It excites me to take a few days alone to just tune out everything. I am not sure if I want to be alone with my thoughts but I am up for the challenge. Looking to schedule a day to start and build from there.
This journey reminds me of the Robert Frost poem The Road Not Taken. At the end he says:
“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”
By enrolling in the MKE, this course is the path less travelled, and it has made all the difference to me.
MKE is definitely the world less travelled but well worth the journey. You have come far since September and I know you have great things within you to share with the world!
Let the thoughts disappear in your sits. Let your heart speak from within.
“The road less traveled”. I’ve discovered many times in my life that when I have taken a road “less traveled” it had shown to be a road that a lot of others have taken as well. But if I never would have taken that road I would never have discovered that others had taken that road.
Thank you Loren
Let us hope for the day, Michael, when the path “less traveled by,” becomes the one most traveled! For now, all of #MKE is grateful you chose the right path! 🙂
Love that Frost quote, Michael! It’s perfect for the MKE! Hope you get that silence scheduled soon – it is amazing!
