Man, its fun to see a great conversation become a great post!

And I would add just one thing. Too often people try to make their frustration go away without mining it for meaning and direction because they don’t know that’s what its for.

And while they’re moving away from frustration they’re also miss the signpost saying, ‘Go this way.’ Can you spell dis-orientation?

Frustration’s a tool. Part of our life’s feedback system. Use frustration as you would any other tool and it’ll help you get your business or your life on the right road again.

But mistake it for an inconvenient pain in the beehind (sorry Lois - couldn’t resist!) and you don’t just feel lousy, you miss the message.

Leverage the tool by asking some open-ended, inquisitive questions - then get a little creative (even playful) in your thinking - and you’ll be surprised how much easier shifting gears - or direction - can be.

Thanks again for a fun hour, Lois!
