 Perfect Timing
Steve,
Thanks for the post it came at the perfect time for me.
Over most of 2006 I have been dealing with a situation at work where my manager had a view of me in his mind that I could not dispel. Eventually, I was dumped out of his team.
It was perfectly timed because as a second year student of Shiatsu I have been looking at this situation using its theories. This weekend at college we were discussing the link between eating and ideas; that is when someone cannot accept an idea and constantly chew and churn it over in their minds. In Chinese medicine digestion is associated with the Earth and in turn this is controlled by Wood, which is by nature flexible and creative.
Your post today reminded me of that connection. My response should have been one of acceptance and more creative. I just ended up being as closed off as my manager.
Thanks for the site and your insights. |
