RSD #1,505 Red light, green light

Posted on July 19, 2022July 19, 2022 by Colleen

Listening to the book, Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey, after having just read it. I do like this learning style and am enjoying listening as I run (listening to Matthew McConaughey’s voice doesn’t suck). Each chapter has multiple “greenlights” where he describes a life experience or a life lesson.

As children we played red light, green light on the playground. In real estate we play red light, green light with our finances. Having a new way to think about red light, yellow light, and green light as it pertains to areas of my life is an interesting concept.

Where in my life am I hitting the green lights? Am I proceeding with caution through a yellow light anywhere? I know I am at a red light in one area of my life right now. Trying to figure out how to navigate and start proceeding with caution is a challenge. Right now turning this into a greenlight seems like an impossibility.

Deep thoughts for a morning run. I hope you are hitting all greenlights! Run happy!
