Rebel Deep
Stuck In A Rut?
I sure was!
I was in Tahoe last week as four BIG storms brought over ten feet of snow. It was slick as a gut, drifted so deep in places that even Thelma (my F-250 turbo diesel truck) had a hard time getting through. After they plowed the roads, it was still a mess with melting, freezing and lotsa black ice.
I skied every day. To get to the hill in the morning - I had to constantly change Thelma between 4-Wheel Drive High and Low. It took 4WD Low (with my wheel hubs locked) to get moving in my driveway and down my side street. Once I hit the bigger street, I had to get out, unlock the wheel hubs and shift to regular 4WD. But then it would start to snow and accumulate. I'd hit a thick spot and have to pull over so I could lock the hubs again for 4WD LOW to get by. Or I'd get into the parking lot and get stuck - and have to change those hubs.
I'd never had to do this before! After a few days, I got frustrated. By day five I was gunning it to get over bumps and sliding backwards into my friend's garage at Squaw (no damage, Les) just to avoid having to get out and lock the hubs for 20 feet of forward progress. I even got stuck going up the hill to Tahoe Donner in 4WD one night, sliding backwards down the road. I told myself I didn't want to get out in minus 5 degree weather to lock the hubs. Luckily a nice policeman drove up behind me, got out and locked my wheel hubs for me. I made it home just fine.
I was stuck in all sorts of ruts!
Why was I so resistant to those darned hubs? It takes 30 seconds and makes it easy to go anywhere I want to go. There were lots of folks who would have loved the chance to drive safely in all that snow. They were parked in snow drifts or halfway to the top of a hill. They'd get out to switch their hubs I bet! Yet I'd have done anything to stay in that truck and drive - instead of crawling in/out to lock/unlock those hubs.
I'm thinking it was the lack of control. Getting stuck in that snow in my 6-ton hauling pick-em-up truck made me feel so powerless. I'd get out and lock those hubs, then get back in and have this sick feeling as I started forward again - waiting to slide backwards because sometimes even 4WD LOW didn't work.
Most of the time with those hubs locked - I was going anywhere I wanted. But it was only most of the time. I had to have four guys push me out of a dip at my fave ski store one night. 4WD Low wouldn't dig me out of the deep snow. I was scared all the way home of getting stuck yet again.
Most of us don't like change because it makes us powerless. I found myself resisting change - even something as simple as changing my hubs. Not because of the weather. It was because of how powerless I felt. That got me thinking.
If I avoid a change as simple as that - what will we do to avoid big changes?
