I know I need to keep the focus on me and not on the outcomes. It is sometimes hard to keep it there.
Congratulations for your "Understatement of the Year" submission. You are in the running for first place.

As far as mapping a course, I keep getting mired in outcomes. Seems so hard to separate the outcomes from the me.
I don't know if you can eliminate outcomes altogether. Just don't make them your focus... and certainly, keep their importance to a minimum. If you don't, they define you, rather than you defining them.

I think that is a really hard thing for a lot of people to get...

I felt it coming on, but I couldn't seem to avoid the dive to the bottom. Hey, at least I saw it coming this time, that's got to be some progress right?
Abso-FRIGGIN-lutely!! And knowing all of that now... was it easier to bounce back? Or not really? I'm just curious.
