What is a Journeyman?
A person who journeys π
Yes! Far too glib! But it says a lot inside when you stop to look.
And that is what the Journeyman does.
She stops to look …
The Journeyman has a fairish idea of who she is …
Now she’s working on where she is …
And that’s a whole other question!
Let me tell you a story …
Let’s say I ask you to plan a route to Birmingham … but I don’t tell you where you’re starting from.
Could you do it?
No, you couldn’t.
To plan the journey you need to know just where you’re starting from.
And that’s purrrzackly how it is in Life, Magic, the Universe and Everything π
Making Mistakes Successfully
The truly educational bits of life are often disguised as a hedge π¦π
Who, in their life has never made a mistake?
You’ve parked the car in the wrong place.
You’ve taken the wrong turning.
You’ve misunderstood the situation.
You’ve made a glorious mess.
The person who’s never made a mistake has never made anything!
Dad had a lovely adage I’ve lived-with all my life
‘Learn how to make mistakes successfully‘
And the heart of that is to say …
What gift has this cockup brought me that I’m not seeing yet?
That’s got a future!
That can take you places you ain’t never dreamed of yet.
That opens up a universe full of possibilites.
And that’s purrrzackly what the Journeyman does!
She doesn’t stand in the snow wailing and berating herself.
She frowns, focuses her eyes real hard, and says …
‘Now what am I missing here?’
You’ll find yourself doing that all the time in the Deer Trods
And having so much fun!
