Ugly Truths and The Company They Keep - Season 3 / Episode 10

I’m thankful that I’ve been able to use Human Systems Dynamics to transform wicked patterns in my life. There’s one pattern that I haven’t been able to transform - not because I don’t have the tools - it’s because I haven’t had the desire and courage to deal with it until now. An unexpected and powerful question from a loving friend and critic recently inspired me to deal with my ugly truths and the company they keep. Staring at it in the face reminds me just how ignorant I’ve been. Fortunately, I’m not ignorant anymore, and I refuse to allow what I once didn’t know to be my forever excuse for not moving past it. Are you holding tightly to unhealthy patterns because they’ve been part of your life for so long that it would feel uncomfortable to live without them? If that is part of your story, I invite you to zoom in and zoom out of your ugly truths with deep curiosity and envision what your life would be like if you had the courage to walk away from what’s kept you safely stuck in a wicked pattern.Overcoming wicked issues can be a tough process, but nothing is intractable when we use Human Systems Dynamics.
