Are You a Good Dancer?
These are a special pair of shoes that a parent wears while dancing with his or her child - from Finland.
It's one of those things that you stumble onto while doing something else (like working on Chapter 14 :-) and some part of your brain suddenly chugs into gear clicking and clacking away. Helping people overcome an injury, at least for some part of the process, is a lot like letting your kid stand on your feet while you dance. You need some regular sorts of movements, walk straight ahead, back, sideways, so you can once in a while throw in something unexpected. That's when kids laugh, right? They don't laugh much as you just plod along foot after foot. No. They laugh when you swirl, or surge, or hop, or take a huge, gigantic step.
And now that I think about it, isn't surprise one of the better things in life?
Are you working in enough surprising moments? Daily? Weekly? Monthly?
