You’ve landed. Now what? Perhaps it’s taking you a moment to level with the fact that you had to ground your flight. It’s a bit of a rehabilitation, and you need to walk again perhaps. You look at your wings and they look as good as new, and every time you take the glance you’re disappointed to know that they‘ll just be sitting there for a while. The weather is just not good for flying, and as we know from the first blog, there’s a beast in the sky.
Welcome back to The Better Fly blog series. In this second blog we’ll spend some time talking about nurturing the mental garden where your dream resides. This garden is going to require more than just flowers; more than just good thoughts. You’ll need to populate this mental garden with insects too. Today, we look at the dragon fly to be exact and its multifaceted eyes. I’ve learned that dragon flies actually have 30, 000 facets within their eyes and have the ability to see you going and coming. Right away you can see the benefit of having some of these beloved bugs around. After all, what’s a dream without facets, and what’s a vision without eyes.
Begin to think about what living creatures you may want in your garden, and why. For example, the dragon fly usually represents flexibility, transformation, and adaptability. All of these are of great importance at this stage of rebuilding confidence and strength as well as walking your dream forward and watching its shape begin to change. Remember we last talked about receiving special instructions on how to get around the beast in the sky. Could it be that these instructions could cause your dream to take on a new shape and life? If you adapt the qualities of the dragon fly, then transformation could be only a few miles away, but it you’re thinking about how you got up in the air the last time, you could be grounded for a length of time.
In business, and some business industries, swift changes in trends, methodology, and regulations can put everyone on notice. While you’re on your feet, take some of these things into account. See what you may have missed, and even take time to deal with and respond to some of the shifts you didn’t have a chance to respond to or integrate into your operation before. All of this can help to prepare for the next flight.
Applying the multifaceted vision of the dragon fly to your life and business, can you catch a glimpse of what’s going and what’s coming? Maybe it’s just around the corner, or perhaps a short five years out. Consider that you’re even in the best position to see what’s on the way out. This is the great benefit of remembering to tend to the mental garden were our entrepreneurial spirit lives and breathes. What if these new eyes can also see some of your doubt, and show you how it’s also lending to apprehension or refusal to readily adapt? Picture yourself being informed, and now decide how to respond. Decide what the next few miles of the walk back into flight will look like and what’s to come out of it, because this is a living workshop that leads all the way to the next take off.
