Much, much more is possible than people ordinarily think.

The Art of Possibilities


Our premise is that many of the circumstances that seem to block us in our daily lives may only appear to do so bases on a framework of assumptions we carry with us.

Draw a different frame around the same set of circumstances and new pathways come into view.

Find the right framework and extraordinary accomplishment becomes an everyday experience.

Woman with Flower


Woman with Flower
by Naomi Long Madgett

I wouldn’t coax the plant if I were you,
Such watchful nurturing may do it harm.
Let the soil rest from so much digging
And wait until it’s dry before you water it.
The leaf’s inclined to find its own direction;
Give it a chance to seek the sunlight for itself.

Much growth is stunted by too careful prodding,
Too eager tenderness.

The things we love we have to learn to leave alone.

The Sun Never Says



Even after all this time
The sun never says to the earth,
"You owe Me."

Look what happens with
A love like that,
It lights the Whole Sky.

- Hafiz
