Of course you have and yet, how much time do you set aside to \nfoster an openness to create a channel for your own movie to play in \nyour mind?<br><br>\nI especially like how this month\u2019s feature article leans into the \nessence of creating the space and the place to receive helpful and even \nrandom thoughts.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u2026 <\/strong>&#8220;The CEO related how much of his ability to navigate very demanding days was to set aside five minutes, three times a day \u2026&#8221; <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> One of my favourite stories about being grounded with silence comes from  having the privilege of coaching the CEO of a well known Canadian auto  repair franchise. After I started to work with this individual he  related how much of his ability to navigate very demanding days was  learning to set aside five minutes, three times a day to check-in on how  he was feeling and what he was moving ahead through his leadership. In  this instance, he found success by setting aside structured time in his  calendar first thing in the morning, mid and end of day.<br><br> This scenario works for people who enjoy and need a disciplined  structure. Imagine how much more is possible if each of us develops the  habit of setting aside the time for dreaming? Imagine how more is  possible if you are responsive to these thoughts in unstructured  moments?<br><br> I invite you to read this article and make April the starting point for  carving out your time to stay in touch with your dreams. Listening to  your wise mind by not forcing the answer to every problem you find have  right away. Inviting Aha moments will present you with a wide selection  of options and a panorama of new possibilities.<br><br> Enjoy your Aha\u2019s!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recommended Reading:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Harvard Business Review &#8211; &#8220;4 Steps to Having More &#8216;AHA&#8217; Moments&#8221;<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/theholbrowgroup.com\/index.php\/2017\/04\/20\/aha\/\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":949,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[13,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-947","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-communicate","category-leadership"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theholbrowgroup.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/947","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theholbrowgroup.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theholbrowgroup.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theholbrowgroup.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theholbrowgroup.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=947"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/theholbrowgroup.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/947\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":948,"href":"https:\/\/theholbrowgroup.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/947\/revisions\/948"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theholbrowgroup.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/949"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theholbrowgroup.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=947"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theholbrowgroup.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=947"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theholbrowgroup.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=947"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
