Reduce Your Stress with Tim Ringgold

There are two areas of life that both fascinate me and often frustrate me. They are the concepts of #skillset and #mindset. We might call them the outer game and the inner game. My experience is that they are two sides of the same coin, and if I want to succeed at something, BOTH need to be present, having been built through training and practice. One reason I love art and athletics so much is that they can both be great teachers. I've learned that skillset and mindset are just as vital in these two arenas as anywhere else.  

Today's track is called "After the Storm," and it represents the newness - the freshness - that I experience after the rains have passed and the sun breaks through the clouds. It's like a rebirth, a new beginning. I'm looking forward, and I'm thinking forward to what's possible, now that the storm has passed. 

What's interesting is that I don't think twice about the fact that there was a storm in the first place. I don't resent or lament the storm. In fact, once it passes, I hardly give it a second thought, even if it's left some sort of damage. I think that's because in my head, I've given nature permission to to be what it is. I just accept it and don't resist whatever comes. However, I'm NOT that way in other areas of my life. For example, when I fail or fall short of my expectations in business, I lament whatever happened, and sometimes dwell upon the metaphorical storm that occurred for weeks, months, or even years.

This track is a reminder to me that I can look forward in business, just as I do in nature. It's a choice. Hopefully you'll experience the joy and serenity I feel when moving past the storm in nature, and may we all find the way to looking forward past whatever storms are in our recent past. Enjoy, and if you like it, please let me know either through a review on Apple or even an email or FB or IG shout out! It REALLY means a lot to me.

In this track, Tim shares another new piece of music inspired by - yes, you guessed it - Pickleball of all things! He recently attended a two day "camp" where he got to be mentored by some of the top professionals in the world, and it gave him a glimpse of how he could take his game even higher. Once again, it was a great metaphor for life.
