Think Strategy -- Designated Confusion

True story.  Several months back, I went for an early morning run after about two hours of sleep.  Mind had been racing for hours.  Tossing ideas and throwing solutions.  Vibes were too strong for a notepad.  Had to move – got up and dressed for a few morning miles.  Chose a main street – 4:20a – instead of a track.  In this story I trip – land on my hands...in the street – look up as vehicles are approaching.  More than 100 yards away.  Thank God.

Designated confusion impacts our efforts to become better employees and entrepreneurs.  At least once I’m sure.  We often view these unexplainable events with confusion.  Stuck on the why me?  Occasionally a desperate lunge (on our part) at the why not try this or that, shall I instead approach him or her, or what if I remove...align with...or scratch altogether?  Too infrequent in my opinion. 

Around 4:10a an automobile accident had occurred.  30 minutes later remnants and polices lights were still present.  Different day, vehicles would have approached faster – outcome might have been much different.  Select a recent situation.  One with a questionable ending.  Take time to analyze the event.  I did.  Designated confusion hides rewards.  I know this to be true.  So does Will.  It’s Monday — don’t be afraid to run — Let’s keep it Moving!
