“THIS MINIATURE IS ABOUT THAT BREAK POINT, ONE STEP OR POINT AWAY FROM WINNING. THIS INTERRUPTION IN TIME PROVIDES THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHIFT, REFOCUS, IMPROVE AND POTENTIALLY CHANGE THE OUTCOME, WITH THE ABILITY TO BE RESILIENT, TAKE HITS, DEAL WITH SET BACKS AND KEEP GOING BEFORE BREAKING POINT. THIS PIECE ALSO SPEAKS ABOUT SLICING OPEN TO THE CORE AND EMBRACING REGROWTH – SHEDDING THE OLD SKIN AND PENETRATING OUR NEW BODY AND MIND WITH OPTIMISTIC BELIEF THAT DEVELOPS SELF-CONFIDENCE, PURPOSE, BELONGING AND ADAPTABILITY IN ORDER TO SUCCEED.”
