There is a famous quote by psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl.
Between stimulus and response there is a space.
In that space is our power to choose our response.
In our response lies our growth and our freedom.
It epitomises our permission to choose. Permission is a powerful word. Perhaps the most significant Unlock Moment in my own life journey was to give myself the permission to explore a different path.
There is power in the permission to act. To choose what happens next. But we need to find the space. And if we do then, as Viktor Frankl says, we will find our growth and our freedom.
