Going out of your way

I’m off to the far north of England today, a 500 mile road trip, to meet someone, and it occurred to me that sometimes you do have to go ‘out of your way’ to see someone, or their point-of-view. Most of us have trouble doing this from time-to-time. So my thought for today… travel to their side of the desk and look at things from their perspective. What do they want /need from you? What are their fears/aspirations? If you understand these, then you can bridge that gap… go on… give it a try!

“Common sense is the knack of seeing things as they are, and doing things as they ought to be done.” C.E Stowe
