Let go of the drama, Make the decision

I love this teaching.  It came from a collaborative process with my company’s creative director, Riyaana Hartley – who happens to be a stellar interviewer and filmmaker – when she asked me how I know when I’ve made a final decision.  I was so used to thinking that decisiveness and clarity = massive enthusiasm.
