One of my favorite books is Marcus Aurelius’s Meditations.
To get inside of this Stoic’s mind is so incredible with how far advanced he was so long ago with Mindfulness,
how he looked at the world,
how he treated people,
and how beautiful his thoughts and heart was.
One of the things that he talks a lot about is what he called Plato’s View.
Sometimes we can get in the weeds when we’re working on a project, you and your partner are struggling with things, or you’re trying to get better at something.
Sometimes you just need to take Plato’s View and zoom out where you can look and see progress.
Where you can look and see love and see peace and joy.
Then when you’re ready, you can get back into the weeds.
I urge you if you’re feeling stuck, just zoom out.
