Round & Round

Round and round it goes …

Some days, weeks, and even years, can feel like this: a never-ending ride on the merry go round of life.

There is a relentlessness that comes with this. Time blurs and hides any sense of progress or achievement.

What if we were to reframe the never-ending story, and to see it as part of life’s rhythms? What if we were to change the music, and the proverbial horse we are riding on this merry go round? What if we were to go forth enjoying the round and round of the ride, knowing we can step off whenever we need?

Revisiting the round and round feeling from a new perspective might just allow us to see our regular rhythms and progress afresh.

And, as fellow writer and coach, Michal Berman, writes in response to this prompt:

You know it’s not round with no progress. It’s the ball moving

I’m curious, what balls are moving ‘round and round’ in your work and life?
