Hi Subscriber ,
Do you ever realize something great happened, and trace the trail back as far as you can? For example, I am now working at a theater in Florida that I found out about through someone I met at a theater in Missouri, and this theater in Florida hired me because I'd worked twice at a theater in Illinois that the artisitic director knew well, and the theater in Illinois hired me years ago because of a connection that I had from high school. Yes, high school.
Tracing the trail is possible with all sorts of things, not just with career related opportunities. You can also trace back how you learned the emotional skills to deal with your current situation or how you became strong enough to run a marathon.
Why bother with tracing your trail? For one thing, it helps us see the path we are on, and as a mapmaking life coach I specialize in helping people trace their map from the past to the present and into the future. That way, what you do next is a logical next step for which you are prepared. But here's another reason: if you trace your trail daily, the activity has been shown to increase happiness. You start to see patterns and the ways in which you and the people around you are involved in creating a positive, peaceful world. It's one of the most-used exercises among positive psychologists.
Try it, and let me know what you think.
Have a great day,
Dawn
