When connection calls, intentionally leave room for an unexpected answer within. Ask what a modest improvement in your process would look like before you proceed. A brief consideration of another angle deepens your chosen, thoughtful expression. Let expression meet purpose in the way you approach this. Let this small step help you connect separate ideas into a useful whole as you notice a quiet source of support.
