I know the power of this word, I love to hear the impact these conversations have. Okay, let's get into it.

You'd be familiar with the idea of having tunnel vision of having that focus that's so narrowed, that you know exactly what you should be doing. To me, I look at a little bit differently. That tunnel vision might mean you miss an opportunity that was really close, but not close enough for you to see it because the tunnel is so focused on how you think it's got to be that you lose sight of different opportunities, different ways to improve things. So rather than a tunnel, it's more like a groove. And when I say groove, like imagine a cutting on the side of a hill, like a slope. Gonna have like a valley, you create a groove, by persistence, you have a walking track, right? People walking over a long period of time the track becomes more visible and increases. You think if you're working on something in a workshop or artistically that the more you can repeat the same task in the same area and you can create a groove in suddenly a track through that persistence. So you create this groove to follow through practice through persistence. Become becomes easier because repetition means that you can just follow that same path. But because it's like a opening, like that cutting like a valley that that angles out in both directions, you can also see what else is out there. And be open to bring in new information and new ideas to enhance the groove that you're creating. And if you look at the other meaning of groove, right, more from a rhythmic perspective get your own groove. And add variation to make changes be more spontaneous, predictable results because of the foundations you've built. But the ability to adapt in all environments.
