The Grocery Pickup Pivot
 Family errand planning
Master Registry #9 | Resilience, Adaptation, Keeping Perspective
Setting: Family errand planning
“When I was about to leave to pick up the very large grocery order, Diana frantically texted me that she accidentally set the pickup time for 9:30 PM not AM.
I said ‘hold on, we got this.’ Because I learned a long time ago to ’never despair at the immediacy of your circumstance.’ If you breathe, take it in, consider, and reset, it will all be good.
Then I ran upstairs, and started talking to Diana by reminding her about how one time I booked an expensive flight… for exactly one month later.
Then I reminded her that we will do the best we can with what we have, NOW, and not stress about what we cannot control.
She laughed, I went to the store and got what we needed, and we rescheduled the normal grocery pickup.”
Key Lesson: “Never despair at the immediacy of your circumstance.”
