Approaching initiative means beginning with the absolute smallest manageable movement. Do not rush the articulation, letting each word settle before the next appears. Allow the words themselves to settle where they find their natural resting space. Let perspective meet initiative in the way you approach this. Let this small step help you connect separate ideas into a useful whole as you invite a second perspective.
