The Possibilitist
Apr 13, 2020What do you call someone who looks for and steps into possibility despite uncertainty or adversity?
I call a person who cultivates and demonstrates that approach a possibilitist.
A possibilitist is someone :
- who sees the opportunity, lesson, or a silver lining in any situation.
- who frames circumstances to reveal choices.
- who sets their aim and plans with intention and integrity.
- who's instinct is to find the others and lean in together.
- who accepts what happens and then starts again.
A possibilitist isn't reactive or reckless. Advancing into uncertainty requires responsiveness and deliberation. Their impulse is to not hesitate, hide, or hinder. Instead a possibilitist's instinct is to acknowledge, act, and advance.
I'm a possibilitist. What about you?
Let's see and step into possibility together.
