Re: Moving Away from Stress

Hi Chad, Thanks for your comment. I am not sure how Hodgson is defining agency, so the comparison is not clear to me. In my depiction of the landscape diagram, I feel the lower left corner is constrained - there is a lot swirling around me and there is time pressure, so I feel I have limited options (stress!). But if I can move away from that corner, new options and insight appear. Would love to know more about what you see in comparing the two models.

Glad it resonates with you, and thanks for your note about quick decisions...a little more time for meaning-making, individually and with others can be well worth the delay!

Glad to have you here, Hoffie. I have been playing with these sliders for a while, and am learning a lot about how to see the world with less certainty. It can be difficult yet I like how it opens up possibilities.

Wow... Thank you for going so deep...what a generous soul you are to share.

I have been somewhat away from twitter and other social media for about a month, and to come back today to find this message is quite powerful. Totally kick ass in fact! A small side note - I am a People-to-People alum. It is exciting to know you will bring much wisdom and soul to your new role with EPAX.

Really happy for you Jay! And for us, too - now that you'll be fully immersed in social media, we'll get even more opportunities to learn right along with you. Your point of view is really refreshing and needed. Have a blast and don't be too sad about leaving the file room forever behind you :( ----> :)

My first visit here - to see such a sweet post. I am facing the same with my parents lately.
I heard an interview this morning on the BBC with a man of 103 (he still works), and a subsequent discussion on how the aging process is a failure of the body to keep all systems running. I knew this, but it is hit me in a different way today. Thanks for posting this!
