Enrollment, what an excellent concept.  It is always a better approach to get people excited about the possibility of you, tell them what is exciting you, in turn they might catch your spark.  I defined myself as the board last week, and I was able to remain positive.  Things that happened that would normally steer me away or get me off course were defined as events, and when these events happened, I asked myself, “How did that get there?”  I practiced not taking events personally, it's not personal, it is an event that appeared on my board.  What a difference in my emotional state, and my ability to view things objectively, which gives me the ability to better play the game.  I think this change in myself will spark a change in others because I am an event on their board as well.  If I become a positive event in their life, all the better for the events in their game.  A change in myself should spark a change in others, I guess like a domino effect.  Truly, one person can make a difference.  I suddenly have the urge to make sure all of my relationships are good.  Become a positive event in my life and in the lives of others is the next move.

Sounds great, Leon! It must have felt great to have such control over your emotions, to not take events personally and allow pointless fury to get you off track! I'm still practicing! How do you enjoy this book as a musician? I read a little of your AR project below and I'm curious how you take Ben's musical metaphors to make his points especially about long lines and relationships. Do you find it especially meaningful being a musician yourself?
