What holds many people back from taking initiative is not laziness. It's fear. Inaction breeds rumination and feeds anxiety. Action builds momentum and fuels confidence. Some ideas won't work. Some people will say no. But in the long run, it's better to fail than to fail to

Risk-taking might fail. Inaction always fails. You have agency, use it. Life isn't a test of intelligence, it's a test of courage.

Leadership isn’t about wielding power—it’s about understanding people. Empathy fuels connection, and connection fuels action. Want to inspire? Start by listening.

Quick rule when dealing with toxic people.. Keep all interactions: - Positive - Superficial - Brief Give them no (real) information, no fuel & no authenticity. Keep the good stuff for those you trust.

Everybody thinks about the risk of taking action. Nobody thinks about the risk of inaction. What are you giving up by NOT talking to her, by NOT picking up the phone, by NOT putting yourself out there? It's likely far more substantial.

Had a mentor tell me once: "When you're feeling overwhelmed, there are only two things you should do––get organized and get to work. The rest is just noise. Peace is found in progress."

Small minds look down on others. They feed their egos to feel better about themselves. Broad minds look up to others. They learn from role models to make themselves better. Great minds look to lift others up. They use their knowledge and skills to make others better.

It’s more important to be kind than polite. Politeness favors courtesy. We offer compliments and avoid critiques. The goal is to make others feel good today. Kindness prizes care. We’re not afraid to dish out tough love. The goal is to help others do better tomorrow.

When you lower standards, the "underachievers" are relieved and complacent. When you raise standards, the "champions" are excited and motivated.

COACH SABAN ON TRUTH “The hardest part is we have to believe the truth when someone tells us we need to improve on something . . . if you don’t you’ll never improve.”

Accountability is not about calling someone out, playing "gotcha", or controlling someone else. Accountability is about reminding others of standards, goals, and values. Accountability requires trust, love, and respect.
