Choices

Every choice is a chance…It is our choices that show who we really are far more than our abilities.

Ted Lasso

Thought: No spoilers here but I just finished the second season of Ted Lasso and the final episode hit me hard. Ted asks a question of Nate – “What do I have to learn here?” and I was stunned. I had to pause and take a breath. Ted had every reason to be angry and rain fire. But he made a different choice; Ted chose curiosity. Jon Acuff says “curiosity beats criticism.” I’ve yet to find a moment where that was not 100% accurate. Perhaps today I show up with just one question – what do I have to learn here?
