Ep 21 - Don't Force It

Cultures of Change: Healing Our Identity

In episode 21, we're talking about the fact that we don't need to force what has been for us. And we're going into a conversation about when we are working in a team environment and we're working with other people.
How important it can be to allow everybody to express themselves freely in the space. Allow them the room to contribute and to collaborate to the task at hand. And if we are in a space of trying to force an outcome, it spills over into trying to force other people to act and be in a certain way. It also goes for situations as well. When we're forcing something, we're starting to focus our energy into a tense, restricted space.
We put our head down, we put our blinkers on, we try and block out the reality of the changes and the challenges that come up when we are implementing something, when we are creating something. Nothing ever translates from plan to reality perfectly. And if we're in a space
of forcing an outcome that we've locked our mind onto creating, then we start to create from a place of stress and restriction and we don't invite new ideas or new opportunities to then flowing.
