Do you remember the TV show “Password”? If you don’t know it, you can check it out here.

In the game, two teams attempted to win by conveying mystery words to each other using only single-word clues.

The word to be conveyed (the “password”) was given to one player on each team and was whispered softly to the audience.

So today, I am whispering a word that I want you to be careful with. The word is:

Safe

Now let me be clear: I want you, your families, your teams, your customers, and everyone to be physically healthy. I am not making a political statement, a comment about mask wearing, social/physical distancing, or anything like that.

But I also want you, your families, your teams, your customers, and everyone to be mentally and psychologically healthy too.

And that’s where I think we have to be a bit careful with the word safe. Watch the Remarkable TV episode below to find out more about what I mean when I ask you to be careful with this word.

Tweet it out: When we tell people to be safe – we want them to be healthy and protected, but we might be encouraging them to be overly careful or wary. How about encouraging people to be well instead? @KevinEikenberry
