I love the journey I took with Teresa as she and I explored the connection between accomplishment and journey. Too often we don’t celebrate the necessary increments—training, for instance—that are the motor behind the crowning accomplishment, say completing a marathon. And this applies to our emotions, our thinking, our reactions, our development and our relationships. Teresa calls that process integration into character.
We can see and feel the results of our efforts, and we can also help ourselves stay tuned (in every way) by paying attention to the question, “Where did that come from?”
