Nearness in Occurrence

Everything is an occurrence.

And occurrences,

plural,

WILL happen.

Proximity impacts

the effort required.

The closer we are to something,

the easier it is to respond.

The farther away,

the harder it gets.

But here’s the thing,

effort doesn’t eliminate occurrences.

Surprises don’t stop

because we work harder.

It’s not necessarily effective

to take a different approach

WHEN surprises happen.

Frequently, we can make

surprises a part of our approach.

The key is to stay on track,

to stay on process.

Don’t react to surprises,

integrate them.

How can you make surprises

a part of your approach?
