How do you cut your avocado?

How have we come to this place in our culture where we can’t just quarter the avocado and pull the pit out with our hands? My excitement has kind of turned into a dull roar on the subject. I have learned that despite the fact that no one I know stops at the half avocado to eat it in that form. Despite the fact that everyone continues to slice or cube the thing, they all insist that they can get that pit from the half avocado. It is like an unspoken challenge. My question to you today it where in your life are you continuing to feel like you have to get the pit from the half avocado?

When coaching, I see time and again where the thing holding people back is the way they are telling their story. I know a lot of people telling themselves the story of the half avocado and the pit. People who could just change the way they are doing something to avoid a problem, but keep doing it because that is the way they learned it, or because some wise expert told them to keep trying to be like them. What is often forgotten is that we are all individuals we don’t all have to do it the same way. Sometimes it is dangerous to act like a chef when you are not one. Sometimes maybe it is worth it to take the chance if there is a gain of reputation to be made. I challenge you all to ask yourselves what is a story that you have always told yourself, that you could change today to make your life better?
