Our modern news are bad for your brain and mental health. We are evolved to care about a small number of other people, often described by various Dunbar numbers. When you see the news of the world in flames, global pandemics, poverty, hunger, inequality, etc. your brain is not geared to deal with that. The result? Depression, disengagement, self medication, etc. For those of you dealing with this successfully, what are your tips?

I suspect that the Era of what can be characterized as feminine energy is imminent or already here. Are you tapped into yours? You will need it to change how you approach problem solving and leadership / citizenship.

New “pocket” theory: we all need control in our life. What if there is an “aggregate” amount of control that is satisfying to us. Can we then get that in some part of our work or home life so that we can live with less of it elsewhere? How might this relate to developing more agility in the work context?

I’m noticing the energy of anger in me today. Anger at myself for not having figured out what will crack the code of finding a place to do the work I feel called to doing. Anger at the state of the world of work, where the focus is still on monetary profit and keeping our humanity out of the workplace. Anger at the misunderstandings I imagine floating “out there” of what agile coaching is, in particular the “coaching” part. Anger about the disconnection and isolation all around us. Anger at imagining I need more “training” or “certificates” or “stamps of approval” from some “authority”. Anger at feeling stuck, at having no outlet, no collaboration, no feeling of abundance. Anger at the anger itself and not knowing where to put that energy to productive use. It’s an anger spiral today. And I just have to wait for it to dissipate. This post is one way of helping to make that happen. #Anger #Angry

If you have Netflix, watch “The Social Dilemma” Our very civilization depends on YOU understanding what the movie is about. Not kidding.

If I ever claim in the future that stress does not make it difficult to make decisions and get things done, remind me of today. I am figuratively speaking paralyzed. P.S.: Wanna see some “frustration agile memes”?
