THINGS WE LOVE

from our heart to yours

missing a puzzle piece, an insight, or a perspective. Then you are setting yourself up for a Click Moment. In most cases, you need only to stay alert and aware. Not everyone can endure it. It is uncomfortable to feel like you’re missing something and don’t know what. It’s tempting to move on or give up or act prematurely. But if you stay in that place, stay aware, look for it, keep looking, and expect it, the click moment will come. There is a more popular name for this phenomenon. It’s called a quantum leap. I like that name. The book You 2 by Dr. Price Pritchett describes it best. But life changing growth doesn’t have to be a grand, apocalyptic, show- stopping event like a quantum leap. It can also come as a quiet click. I see click moments occur in our clients in our Brand Discovery Intensive program. Almost everyone that goes through the process undervalues themselves…not just in pricing but in the true value and impact they bring to the market they serve. Once that understanding clicks, their business and their life shifts on a fundamental level. As we enter the new year, may you experience the thrill of quantum leaps and the delight of Click Moments. And may they help you get a glimpse of the impact you are truly making to the people you’ve been called to help.
