Over the last three months, I have felt and witnessed a wide range of the human experience. Moments of resilience, wellbeing, fear, heartbreak, loss, creativity, joy and connection. I’ve seen acts of kindness, anger, rage, generosity and love.
I’ve seen people come together with amazing strength and spirit and meet the moment of challenge, the unexpected, the unprecedented, with wisdom and grace.
“I feel the need. The need for speed.” If you’re of a certain generation, then you might recognize this famous quote that was said by Maverick in the film Top Gun. While I’m not a fighter pilot, I can relate to the sentiment. There are many times when I feel a need—a need for speed. I need to go faster, move faster, accomplish faster. And it really looks like something is “at stake” if I don’t. The strong feeling of “need for speed” is compelling.
I’m writing to you today from Edinburgh. We’ve just completed the kick-off weekend for the Beyond Limits Small Group Mentoring program.

As we get ready to start a new year and a new decade, I’ve been reflecting on what I’m grateful for as well as what I am grateful to leave behind. In a recent conversation with a potential client, I was reminded of one thing I’m particularly grateful to leave behind: the pursuit of “special”.
What if the only thing between you and having a whole new experience of who you can be is an illusion of THOUGHT?
