Leading Indicators

Recently I have had the sense that my days have been a bit like the stock market. The gyrations of ups and downs have me feeling a bit worn out.

Over the past year especially, I have begun to really focus on what is most important to me. While amazingly successful by most people's definition, I have assessed myself as a only moderately successful. My inability to accomplish higher level relationships with people has literally brought me to my knees during recent months. I have jokingly talked about spending more time on my knees than on my feet during these times.

As with the market, leading indicators now reflect a steady improvement and a sign of hope. I seem to be able to spend more time on my feet. The benefit of spending more time on my knees and alone provided a safe venue to stop and listen.

I am happy to report that budding relationships on many levels have me smiling and wondering if I could actually spend more time up here. What a great momentum builder and sense of accomplishment this would indicate in my story.
