The Daily Ascent

Ep. 108 | How to Change Your Perspective When Everything Feels Wrong


Listen Later

In today's episode, I'm telling you about the time my kitchen turned purple — and how the worst thing about my house in Charlotte turned out to be the very best thing about it once I got Danny.

It's a story about perspective, about how fast we decide something is a disaster, and about what happens when we stay long enough for the gift to reveal itself.

John O'Donohue reminds us not to be afraid to receive each day's surprise, whether it comes to us as sorrow or as joy — because it will open a new place in our hearts.

Question to carry into your day: What are you looking at right now that might look completely different six months from now?
