Are you a hamster or a mouse?
23 September 2009
Being task oriented is not entirely a bad thing, but it does not allow much time and energy for gaining new knowledge or ideas. When we work with our heads down, in nose to grindstone fashion, we do not see much except what is directly in front of us. We miss a lot of opportunity and adventure-and people!
Life should not be a cage where we are all like hamsters on wheels with our lists of chores, grocery lists, lists of calls to make…and lists of more lists to write. If we are going to be like rodents, then let’s be like Stuart Little driving around and seeing the world in his red convertible.
Then let’s share our stories of adventure with each other. When was your last Stuart Little moment?
