I woke up with the word “glue” on my mind this morning. I had to let the term set for a bit before I could appreciate the larger concept it adhered to.

It struck me how glued we are to our thoughts, positions and actions, especially the ones not working for us.

It’s as though we have a sign glued to our back that says, “Kick Me,” but we can’t see it, and wonder why we’re getting our donkey kicked.

Looking in the mirror is a great practice, but it dawned on me that we can’t reflect on what we can’t see.

That’s where the addition of another mirror comes in handy.

A hand mirror, working in tandem with a larger mirror, gives you the ability to expand your view of you.

Your hand mirror is the hidden part of you that reveals more than even the largest surface mirror can reflect.

Using it is how you find the glue that keeps things stuck to you.

Where in life do you keep gumming up the works? If you don’t know, be brave and ask a close friend or family member and they will tell you. There is a repeating pattern that causes you to run into the same sticky-wicket with whomever you meet.

You can’t seem to help yourself. You get the same results time after time even though you’ve made many adjustments to yourself in the big mirror.

The way to never discover that the back of your hair remains uncombed is to justify what you have been doing, even though it isn’t working. That’s called arguing for your limitations. It’ll keep you in a sticky mess.

So how do we get a more complete view so we can remove the glue? Recognize that you have a hand mirror – a part of you that expands your view.

The next step is to ask this part of you what to do. This request is best asked before going into a time of quiet reflection. Your request could be as simple as this: Reveal to me the part that I can’t see.

Remember: You can only go to work on what you can see.

If your constantly sticking to your guns and your ever present thought is, “They don’t get me,” you are oblivious to the sign glued to your back that says, “Pee on Me.”

The overarching reality is this: Everyone gets you but you.

If you ever decide that you want to see what they’re seeing, so that you can make some real adjustments, get quiet and find your magic mirror.

All the best,

John
