Five Questions That Change Everything: Life Lessons At Work

Everyone gets the experience. Some get the lesson. T.S. Eliot captures the essence of Five Questions That Change Everything. So what turns an experience into a learning opportunity? It's not what happens in the seminar, workshop or classroom. It has to do with your attitude, the way

you approach the experience. The only requirement is that you seek the lesson in the experience. And the more you need that lesson, the more likely it is to show up in your everyday experiences through your relationships. If you could start to see your entire life-- relationships, work, recreation, and devotional practice--as a classroom, then all the stu that happens to you every day, at work, for instance, could be seen as grist for your

learning mill, could become the curriculum for your development course you are taking in this life. We are not just about mastering a subject or a set of skills--the object of most classrooms. This classroom is more about the self-mastery to learning how to manage things like success, failure, fear, pride, confusion, and/or anger. When you can hold what happens at work--or anywhere else in life--this way, then class is always in session, and

that changes everything.
