A presenter reflects on a training about coaching teams, emphasizing shifting focus from individuals to their connections, shares the phrase I'm glad I'm here as a guiding practice, and introduces the weekly theme of enoughness as being already enough in the moment.
Barry Manilow's 17 words: I'm glad I'm here. Training on how do we coach teams of people. Looking at the ways that different individuals are connected to each other. Creating pathways and accessibility to everybody. That's the purpose.
On Saturdays, what do we talk about here in the Cadre today world? We talk about enoughness. This wonderful idea that you are already indeed in this moment enough. Enoughness is a collection of two questions. Am I capable? Am I worthy? So now what becomes possible?
Jules Maffey, Speak. Wonder what a crew. Thank you for spending time with me. The same purpose as me so we can consider ourselves interconnected teammates. You came along just like a song and brightened my day. Have a good day.
You know I can smile without you I can't smile without you I can't laugh and I can't sing I'm finding it hard to do anything you say I feel sad when you're sad I feel glad when you're glad if you only knew, Maffy what I'm going through I just can't smile without you Ah, a little peaceful Barry Manilow to kick off your Saturday morning. How are we doing, Cadre? I hope you're great and if you're not, that's okay, too. And hey, I'm glad I'm here I'm glad you're here I know what I know and I care about you Speak wonder, I care about you funny enough, those 17 words, I'm glad I'm here I'm glad you're here I know what I know what I care about you I heard those words for the first time at a continuing education that I took in Chicago a handful of months ago.
And I just got back yesterday from another training in London. So now I'm going to test myself if I was going to say something that I'll carry with me from this training. I love putting little, little thoughts, little ideas into my satchel that I carry with me throughout life that come from the moments that I get to experience. And I think, this is a good one. So the whole training was on how do we coach teams of people? You know, so often if we think about how we help other people, we go, okay, that person needs help and we give them help.
And in reality, so often where the assistance is needed or where the light needs to be shined is not on the individual, but on the connections of that individual with other individuals and with other individuals and with. Under individuals, because we are interconnected. So it was a long week of looking at how do we stop looking at the individual and start looking at the ways that different individuals are connected to each other. One of the things that Professor Peter Huckins, who's been working on this concept for the last 48 years, brought up is that we don't create our purpose.
Like, teams don't exist because they go, okay, we're going to create a purpose. It doesn't go team, then purpose. It goes, there's a purpose. And all of a sudden a team comes together to amplify, to support, to move that purpose in a certain direction. I mean, I love that, right? If we think, what are we doing here in the Cadre sphere, there is a great purpose, and that purpose was creating pathways and accessibility to everybody. On this planet, to have to have a space where they can wander in the way they choose to wander, to find what it is that resonates with them and their journey to feeling better than they felt a moment ago.
That's the purpose. That's why we're all here. Jules, nice to see you too, my friend. So, on Saturdays, what do we talk about here in the Cadre today world? We talk about enoughness. Enoughness. This wonderful idea that you are already indeed in this moment enough. Not because he accomplished something a moment ago, but because right now you are already indeed enough. And that, not a pat on the head, that's not a pandering to, that's not a belittling. It's actually the opposite. It's a charge. It's a think about what currently is in your capacity and how do you put it to use in the ways that will help you accomplish what you want to accomplish.
Enoughness is a collection of two questions. Number one, am I capable? Am I worthy? If the answer to that question is no, like right now, if I ask the question, can I jump to the moon? Am I capable? No, Am I worthy? We already got to know. We don't even need to go into the worthiness part of it. So what do we do with the, with that first question, we make it a yes. So, no, I can't jump to the moon, but I can sit down in my chair and stand up five times, which is going to help strengthen and increase the understanding of muscles to brain, so and so forth.
That will get me maybe one step closer to doing something greater than sitting down and standing up five times. And then the second question is after, am I capable? Am I worthy? The second question is, so now what becomes possible? Well, if I sit down and stand up five times, that's going to ignite certain muscles. It's going to wake me up, it's going to make me feel some endorphins and, and all the things. And all of a sudden, gosh, lots of things become possible that I wasn't even thinking about.
That's a journey of enoughness. And I'll tell you, there are a lot of people in this world and you may be one of them who are going, I don't think there's anything I can do to change the world. And the way that I see the world needs to be changed. And so we come back to those two questions. Am I capable? Am I worthy? And I'll tell you the answer to any questions in terms of your attempt to impact the world. The answer is always yes. Am I worthy of standing up for the neighbor? Am I worthy in taking a rest?
Am I worthy? And the answer is always going to be yes, no matter what the question is, am I capable? That may be different. This comes back to the. To the idea of. Of setting the aperture in the right place. Like, no, you may not be able to become president today, but you could go ahead and send a letter to. To a representative. You may not be able to feed all of the starving people in the world, but you may be able to have a conversation to learn more about why hunger exists, which then gives you more insight into the how and the what and the why and the where.
We are in a state at all times. I think we're getting to the so now what becomes possible is. Is the goal. The idea of feeling hopeless in this journey of conversation we're having, having, having, having, is that we often hopeless means that we don't see what is possible. So my invitation for you today, if today's a full day, a light day, a hard day, an easy day, an exciting day, a day when you want to lay around and do nothing, or a day that you're up early and you want to do something, is to get to the question, so now what becomes possible?
Which is going to require you to answer the first question in a way that you get to the yes, am I capable? Get to a space where you understand your capability, and then start to exercise that second question, so now what becomes possible? Jules Maffey, Speak. Wonder what a crew. And how many times have we done this? So many. Thank you for spending time with me. Thank you for coming around. The same purpose as me so we can consider ourselves interconnected teammates. You came along just like a song and brightened my day.
Who to believe that you were part of a dream now it all seems light years away Everybody and you know I can't smile without you Hey, I can't smile without you I can't laugh and I can't sing I'm not finding it hard to do anything, y', all, because we got the Cadre sphere right here. Have a good day. Key change. Sa with your sad I feel glad when you.
