One of my delightful coaching clients is a music producer, composer and arranger. During our last session we were exploring the characteristics of his ideal business relationships -- the most important traits of the people he'd like to attract and work with. One of the top items on his list was a quality he called 'wide ears'. Someone with wide ears, he explained, is open to and delights in many different types of musical and artistic expression.

What would it be like to approach life with wider ears -- and eyes, and hearts, and minds?

Perhaps we could learn to accept a little more easily the simultaneous joys and sorrows, challenges and simplicities, action and surrender that is a full life. Consciously cultivating a wider heart and soul can help me better navigate the ebb and flow of my excitement in my increasing business success, the challenge of managing the fuller work load said success brings, the joy in my upcoming 25th wedding anniversary and the ever present sadness that the relentless progression of my Dad's Alzheimer's disease brings to all of us in my family.

Deciding to have a wider perspective might help those on opposite sides of the political spectrum move just a bit closer to finding some common ground and workable solutions. Choosing a wider definition of love could deepen and broaden our circle of friends and show us how to become more involved in creating and sustaining communities that nurture us all. Becoming more open to a wider variety of entertainment and cultural experiences could expand our awareness and belief in our own and others' capabilities and options. And so on....

Where in you life could cultivating 'wider ears' be most beneficial and evolutionary? What first steps could you take today to begin?

Anything in life that we don't accept will simply make trouble for us until we make peace with it. 
~ Shakti Gawain

Of course there is no formula for success except perhaps an unconditional acceptance of life and what it brings. 
~ Artur Rubinstein

Wonder, rather than doubt, is the root of knowledge. 
~ Abraham Joshua Heschel

Wonder is the beginning of wisdom. 
~ Greek Proverb

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul. 
~ Douglas MacArthur

I have no particular talent. I am merely inquisitive. 
~ Albert Einstein

It is what you choose not to observe in your life that controls your life. 
~ Lynn V. Andrews

Everyone is an explorer. How could you possibly live your life looking at a door and not open it? 
~ Robert D. Ballard
