That’s the message that flashed across my phone about 50 times after installing the “updated iOS” last night.

Frustrated is an understatement. Let’s just say that is was a good thing the kids were in bed and didn’t hear the words that came out of my mouth. A lot of those types of words…

These “Unknown Error” messages do not offer any help to rectify the situation.

At all. As a matter of fact – it makes me think: “I’ll just stick with the old system next time.”

Unknown errors trip us up, waste our time and can be incredible frustrating to us (and others). Thankfully my wife was very patient and relayed numerous “verification codes” that were sent to her phone…

Most of our “unknown errors” don’t flash across the screens of our lives. We don’t even noticed them.

But OTHERS do.

We all have blindspots that trip us up. Unknown errors that keep us from moving forward.

We tend to stick with the old systems, the old ways of thinking, the old structures. Sometimes without even being aware of the possibilities that lie ahead.

What if we made other choices?  To think through those structures, those old ways and allowed others to give sight to our blindspots? To our own unknown errors?

It seems like the best way FORWARD.

To give people a VOICE in our lives. To listen and value the insight they have into our lives, our families, our mission or business, and our souls.

May the frequency of unknown errors diminish in each of our lives from this point forward!
