Where's your first Fresh Tomato for the Tribe?

We are Greedy Givers. A Tribes-person must begin by first 'giving'. We want a fresh tomato from you quick! :)

A Fresh Tomato in the Tribe refers to 'a fresh insight / perspective'. Something that has been a personal 'aha' for you and will be fresh for the Tribe. Go ahead share it. An insight is a new discovery / realization. New dots that suddenly joined for you and a refreshingly new picture emerged. The 'new' could be new patterns, new perspectives or even new cause & effect relationships that suddenly became apparent to you.

Your tomato could be from any area - your work, your hobby or your home... or even something nice stolen from someone else's work/hobby/home :) Go ahead steal with pride!

Great thing about an insight is that once you see it you can't unsee it. The moment you see it you own it for your use... it's yours! The more you share it the richer it gets! :)

Waiting!

  1. Have plenty to share...just wondering where to start.. :)
    OK...here's one thought from this morning..
    "The most dispensable thing in the most fearsome endeavours is fear.."
    Why?Because it is such an energy sink...the very thing you need the most when you are facing a particularly vexing/challenging/fearsome task..
    If we had lesser people giving in so readily to the first onset of fearful thoughts,perhaps we would have greater success stories than those we see at present.Even if nothing spectacular or outstanding were to come out of denying fear the access to your inner self,it would still be worthwhile to face the task with your faculties freed of its debilitating effects.
    I have often checked myself from giving in to fear at occasions where it is the most obvious response to the enormity of the objective facing me/standing between me and my goal.Its a habit that is tough to develop,but rich in its rewards.If it does not reduce the challenge of the task-and nothings to say it can't-it still manages to keep you stable enough to have at the very least a fair shot at the job at hand.
    Wouldn't everyone at least want that when taking on a particularly difficult or fear-inducing assignment?Think it over..
