I say we go left, you say we go right. We’re stuck.

We might often find ourselves in situations when, metaphorically, we’in a car together with other people and we want to go left but they want to go right. It might feel like going left excludes going right and the other way around. What if there’s a way out of this? Obviously we can’t go both left AND right. Or can we?

What if we can ask… well, where do we need to get? What’s our common destination? What’s our shared goal, we’re in this car… to GET SOMEWHERE.

There might not be just one way to get there, be that left or right. To road to getting there might mean we sometimes need to go left and at other times right, sometimes MORE towards left, and the other way around too. It might mean we’re both correct, we need to go left AND right. One way might be shorter, one faster, another one can have a better view, yet another one can be more fun.

When we focus on going towards our shared destination, our goals, together, that’s what gets us out of this seemingly impossible moment, right now, that’s stopping us from getting closer to where we need to be. We might also have a better time. Am I right?
