If you’ve been paying attention, you’ve probably felt that gnawing unease, that sense that the world is moving in a direction you didn’t sign up for. And, you wonder how some people could have such different perspectives and not see what you see?
That’s exactly how I felt when I heard this call-in radio interview with the “deer-crossing lady,” I couldn’t believe it. Tears of laughter were streaming down my face. The more she talked, the worse (or perhaps better) it got.
All I could think of was, “She couldn’t really believe what she was saying.” But she did! (If you have 3 minutes, check it out. It’s worth it!)

Clearly, the deer-crossing lady did not understand that her solution wouldn’t lead to her desired results, yet she persisted in pushing it.
Fast-forward to today. In the past 100 days, in the US, we’ve seen lots of “executive actions” that many feel are leading us down the wrong path.
But how do you get someone like the deer-crossing lady to see the flaws in their thinking? Or is it even possible?
Yes, it is. But only if you get involved—and focus on what matters to you. Because, so much more is possible.
