                                                            All meetings will be held electronically via Zoom and in person. The following is our regular
         How often do we hear
      ourselves repeating “It’s                           schedule of monthly meetings, however, sometimes meetings are cancelled or schedules are
      complicated,” before                                revised due to holidays, etc. If you would like to attend, please call the BPCA office, (561)

      with complex emotions,

      complicated or, could there
      be more effective solutions?                           Board of Directors                                3rd Tuesday of each month at 9:30 a.m.
         Throughout our lives,
      we often find ourselves                                Budget & Finance Committee                        TBD
      battling over who will host
      this year’s holiday gathering
      - never failing to remind
      all involved that we hosted
      last year’s event. And, to
      further complicate matters,
      we engage in a tug of war
      over family birthdays, weddings, Christening, Bar or Bat
      Mitzvahs. We can’t even have a simple barbecue with friends
      without over-analyzing who should be invited, we create a
      catastrophic complicated nightmare.
         Yes, human beings are complicated and continue to
      play and replay the IF ONLY HE, SHE, THEY WOULD
      ____THEN I WOULD _____ game. But why?
         Perhaps it’s because we gravitate toward overthinking that
      causes our anxiety. Or, perhaps our stressors keep us tossed
      in tailspins of confusion and frustrations? Or, is it because
      we are unaware that we may lose this battle or two and still
      win the war?
         We know change is uncomfortable and at times, can be
      complicated. But the fact be known, it does not have to be
      complicated at all IF we learn and put into practice what
      researchers call Intellectual Humility.
         Intellectual humility is when we become aware and
      recognize that our beliefs might be wrong, and our opinions
      may be fallible because of our psychological biases.
      (greatergood.berkeley.edu)
         When intellectual humility is practiced, we consider the

      viewpoints of others – ALL OTHERS. And, we choose to   BUYER?                                                          SELLER?

         After a bit of research, I found a piece known as “Slowly   (561) 756-8508                                        (561) 756-8508

      relating a story begins to trigger the listener who then
      reacts to the triggering word or phrase. Let this not be the
      case with you or me but let’s mindfully practice the art of
      uncomplicating our lives.                               REDUCED                                        NEW LISTING
         Now, after reading this article, we may still want to
      complicate things by replaying IF ONLY HE, SHE, THEY
      WOULD ____THEN I WOULD _____, and that’s ok. I only
      ask that you think about the words of entrepreneur Richard
      Branson, “Complexity is your enemy. Any fool can make
      something complicated. It is hard to keep things simple.”
