Life is like riding a bike. If you want to live fully, there are three things you have to focus on.
(1) You have to steer. (2) You have to pedal (3) You have to keep your balance.
Maintaining the dynamic relationship between these three aspects are key to living life well.
- It’s important to go in the direction you want, otherwise you find yourself going round in circles. Be alert for obstacles ahead. Are you ready to change direction as needed?
- Watch your speed. Are you going too fast? Do you need to slow down?
- And of course, you need to have a sense of when you are in balance, so you won’t take a tumble and hurt yourself.
We shift priorities as things come up, but its up to us to find the dynamic between the 3 elements that works for us.
We can’t be told how to do this, but we figure it out as we go along.
How’s your ride going in the highs and lows of life?
Thanks to Tim Gallwey’s Inner Game series for the inspiration.
