Manage episode 315107512 series 2850581
It turns out I am much better at accepting other peoples shortcomings than my own.
It is not easy for me to accept underachievement, limitations and circumstances I cannot control. I prefer things I can change, and timelines and plans I feel I can manage. Of course this sense of control is mostly illusory at the best of times. There are always some things I can influence the outcome of and many more things that I cannot. One of the big challenges always is working out which is which.
Faced with frustrations and adverse circumstances many will offer answers and consolations that prove empty. We need to locate ourselves in a timeline that has tangible hope for the future and a mandate for what to do in the meantime.
