Standup will resume June 2. We are going to structure the classes a bit differently than before. We will pick a monthly theme as a group and then the group will have the chance to pick specific questions they want answered. Each class will be built around addressing those questions. If you will be joining the calls can you please suggest topics you would like to learn about in the comments below. Thanks!

Now that we haven't had standup in a little while, we can reflect on the impact the books we have read, have had on our lives. We can make thousands of excuses for why we dont live the lives we want, but none of it has to do with anything external, its all about our internal controls and our perception of things. The sole act of breathing is a privilege, until we realize this we wont get to the depth of gratitude in just being alive. Incongruence refers to the moments when we feel conflicted about a goal, decision, or situation. It’s a form of internal tension—like having two competing voices inside us. One part of us wants to take a particular action, while another part pulls in the opposite direction. This internal tug-of-war can be mentally exhausting, leaving us uncertain and emotionally drained. We can experience incongruence in a variety of ways. Sometimes it’s as simple and seemingly harmless as deciding whether to go out to the movies or stay in and read a book. These minor conflicts don’t usually cause significant stress. However, there are also deeper, more value-driven conflicts—like wanting to assert yourself more in the workplace, but fearing that doing so might come off as pushy or go against your core values of kindness and cooperation. These kinds of incongruence are harder to navigate because they involve our identity and beliefs. On the other hand, congruence is the state in which our thoughts, feelings, and actions are aligned. A congruent person experiences a sense of clarity and direction—there is no internal conflict because their decisions resonate with their values and goals. This state is often described as “being in the zone” or experiencing a “flow state.” In these moments, everything feels natural and effortless because there is no resistance between intention and action. When we are clear with our intentions, it doesn’t matter how much chaos is in our environment, we are not moved by this chaos. If it affects us negatively, then it indicates we do not have a strong personal foundation of our intention.
