To Never Feel Empty

Listen to "To Never Feel Empty" on Spreaker. Bruce Lee is best known for his amazing Martial Arts skills. But he was never a master of one. Bill Gates will forever be remembered for helping to usher in the home computer generation. Was it what he mastered? What about your journey? Have you mastered something? My Martial Arts Master always informed us that it requires 100,000 repetitions in order to begin a journey of mastering something. If you are a brilliant kicker in class I don't expect you to be a great blocker or puncher. We are designed to master only one thing. Forty one years of radio. I am nowhere near what a Master Broadcaster should look and sound like. A daily writer for twenty six years and I truly expect Creative Writing teachers to rip my attempts apart. I created the podcast View From The Writing Instrument for one reason. To talk with writers. Hundreds of them. None the same. Have they mastered their skills? Those of us on this side of print might think so until you hear them personally talk about the journey. Are we supposed to be more like Bruce Lee and accomplish a lot by being just good enough? I know plenty of multi tasking hard working mind blowing people that can cover enormous amounts of space which makes others feel like they've done nothing. As we continue to grow toward the reopening of our incredibly awesome country you're gong to be challenged by a new layer of business decision maker. Thirty three million people unemployed right now. That's a ton of creative minds about to accept whatever it takes to keep their house a home. The invisible part of this present Coronavirus journey isn't the actual virus. Its how the decision makers in companies in question will handle the employee of tomorrow during their bouts with PTSD and other mental conditions they couldn't control but were totally bent into a new shape by this changing world. My wife's school provides work groups with mental professionals weekly. They're strengthening their staff without having to threaten their job. The next steps in getting over this mess to make sure you never feel empty. There'll be new measures put into place on if you need to wear a mask, have your temp checked and heavily spraying down your space. It should also include your business providing mental rebuilding at no cost. We can do this. We have what it takes. Knowing your strength isn't having a grip on how much work you can do. It's realizing how incredibly worthless you feel after a great day of busting ass and there's an huge list of expectations still ahead of you. That creates emptiness. No! Recognize the victory. Do all you can to never feel empty.
