Having watched too much college basketball
this season, I was fascinated and focused
again this year on the phrase - "in transition" -
used by the coaches and commentators
to describe the process of traveling full-court
to shift from defense to offense or vice versa,
where the team has to move to their own or
the opposing team's basket. Much of the game,
and many of the exciting fast-break plays
originate in this place of transition.
In reality, many of us may exist in our own
professional, personal, and/or spiritual lives
"in transition," where what worked in the past
may now seem somewhat dull and lack-luster,
leaving us to wake each morning wishing we
could alter in some way this life we now lead,
even if we are not quite sure how. It is often
challenging to approach these days with
enthusiasm and a sense of purpose.
Finding myself at such a crossroads, I find
that this note below offers a piece of very
sound advice - "stay on purpose," especially
when in a time of transition.
IN TRANSITION
Today, stay on purpose, refusing
to be knocked off course by doubt,
self-questioning, or confusion –
reaching within instead to reconnect
with your inner values and sense
of mission.
Today, stay on purpose, even if you
wonder whether this is the right
course, realizing that only through
right action, will you be able to
discover the viable alternative
or the shift needed to find your
realignment going forward.
Today, stay on purpose, knowing
within the contrast or friction
a spark of creative genius may
erupt and ignite your imagination,
lighting the way to a fuller perspective
where passion and enthusiasm
can once again take center stage.
