Hi, Jane:)

I always enjoy your thoughtful and comprehensive posts here and elsewhere.

I was vaguely aware of David Whyte, but he is much brighter on my radar screen, due to your sharing.  I appreciate you highlighting his work and concepts.

The term "Purposeful Discomfort" caught my attention, as an example of a short phrase that conveys a real wallop, if we take the time to consider what is being described.  Most people would either avoid discomfort as much as possible or minimize it, because most are not comfortable when they are uncomfortable ... get it:)?

Those five entities and the resultant strategic questions associated with each are a great road map to reaching a clear understanding of what is and what is not.   This alone makes me want to learn more about Whyte's work.

As always, your post is useful, makes me think and plan, and is enjoyable to read:)

John
