Finding Your Way in the Fog
How to keep moving forward even when things aren’t clear
When things aren’t clear it can be hard to decide how to proceed. If you’ve ever felt like this you’ll know how helpful it is if you can just get your bearings. We’ll be exploring how to do this.
In Ian’s words, “Here’s what most people don’t appreciate: not all fog is the same.”
There are at least three very different kinds of fog. You can move through each one if you know how, but each requires a completely different approach.
This session is about learning how to read the fog — and then how to navigate your way through it.
Free live session · Friday 4th September · 1pm UK · 50 minutes via Zoom
What we'll explore
- Why staring harder doesn’t work — the two ways we get stuck when we can’t see ahead: freezing until it lifts, or thrashing about to escape it
- Not all fog is the same — the three very different reasons we can’t see clearly, and why telling them apart changes what you should do next
- When the answer is out there, not in here — the fog that thinking can’t clear, and the kind of small, well-aimed move that can
- When you’re divided inside — how to work with being genuinely torn, and why noticing which side you keep arguing against matters more than it sounds
- Coming back to yourself — how to re-anchor on what you actually think when too many other voices have drowned out your own
- The next honest step — leaving with one move this week that starts to clear your particular kind of fog
The anxiety of a rapidly changing world is real. Wondering what the future holds, where you’ll fit and how you’ll be useful takes up more energy than we often admit.
It’s easy to stay so busy and so anxious that we never actually learn to navigate. This session is about the alternative: orienting yourself, finding your direction of travel, and responding from a place of choice rather than reaction.
Navigate from a place of choice, not just reaction.
