Succumb to the crumb

So says the tag line for the new Flake ad here in the UK, a picture of the delicious if just-a-little-sweet-for-me-these-days chocolate bar in all its fragile glory up close on the poster.
In the Do More Great Work workshop on Sunday, participants spent time identifying their Great Work Project. It’s a process that for many was about finally owning up to the thing they’ve been wanting to get on with for a while, and there was a noticeable relaxing in the room when they finally surrendered to what it was that was calling them forward.
It’s a spiritual truth repeated and repeated and repeated: stop fighting what’s there and surrender to it.
So to with your Great Work. Find it. Succumb to it.
Or maybe I just like chocolate.
Used to love Flake but like you, I find it too sweet now.
Amen to your message. Stop fighting what’s there and surrender to it.
All the best with your workshops. To help people find their great work is a noble task.
