The first week of March has a “work life balance” feel to it. We have already talked about “ebb and flow”, today let’s talk about shooting the rapids. When you find yourself whitewater rafting and you are in the middle of a rapid, there is only one way out. Keep on going. You have to become the water. Do not try to resist. Take whatever the water gives you. Let the raft float in and out, back and forth, up and down. Try to steer clear of rocks, however do not fight the water.
There is a great song lyric by Rodney Atkins “if you are going through hell, keep on going, you might get out before the devil knows you are there”. Excellent advice while operating a restaurant or shooting the rapids.
