What is the “ready” position? In our minds it’s about letting go of expectations and being prepared for anything. This takes a change of mindset, but brings increased focus, adaptability, and happiness. Expect nothing but be prepared for anything.

Preparedness gives us a level of okay-ness with dealing with whatever situation comes up knowing you have some skills. Take CPR training, for example. We need to be ready to do it, but hopefully we never have to run into a situation requiring it personally. Conversations with your significant other can be similar when it comes to uncommunicated and unmet expectations.
Sometimes those expectations can be like a thorn, stuck to us... imprisoning at times. We must let go of the attachment and pull the thorn out. Let it drop, be free. Taking a second or two to breathe allows you to be more prepared for whatever comes and allows you to react better.
“By being prepared, we don’t end up feeling like a victim when something outside of us changes the plan.”
Take ownership of your thoughts, actions and feelings. This process takes some deep conversations and accountability, and certainly won’t change things overnight. But we promise you it’s worth it.
