Revising More Stories

qosOver the past several years I've done important work around becoming more aware of the stories I use to define myself -- define myself too myself as well as to others. These are the mantras which surface when presented with new opportunities, new possibilities, stress, discomfort. They explain and justify the choices I make, usually choices to remain stuck in the status quo.
I'm sitting in the lunch room at work, and have just had two very old and deeply entrenched stories assert themselves -- and I realized that I didn't want to be defined by them any more. They don't serve me. In fact, although they have been unquestionably true, I doubt they have ever truly served me.
More later, when I'm not typing on a three inch keyboard.
