The Altitude Adjustment

Ever notice how things look different from 30,000 feet?

When you're deep in a challenge, it can feel overwhelming. Like there's no clear way forward. But when you step back, the edges soften, patterns emerge, and what once felt massive (to use a word my almost 13-year-old son would consider "based") suddenly seems just a bit more manageable.

We get so caught up in the day-to-day that we often forget to zoom out. But clarity often comes when we shift perspective. And, no, you don't have to fly to the South Pacific or climb Mt. Everest to do this.

If you looked at your current situation from above, maybe something you've been struggling with or a decision you've been considering, what might you see differently as an outside observer? Sometimes, the best answers aren’t found by pushing through, but by pausing, stepping back, and seeing the full picture.
