YHC talked about topic on slack around disappointment and how it’s part of everyday because of the brokenness we live in. If we lived in Sky Qs intended paradise disappointment would not exist but because of The Fall, we live in disappointment. Question and challenge for each of us is how will we lead through it and rise above it and shine light into that disappointment. Be a leader and don’t swim in the missed opportunities but rejoice in moving forward.
Thank you Kaiser for the Q stick! Humbled and Grateful
