When you combat cynicism, you need to know its source. Dig deeper with most cynics and you find a frustrated idealist. This person often made the mistake of taking their values and converting them into expectations. When people let them down, they felt hurt and disappointed. "Burnout" does not come from working too hard. There are social workers and teachers who work harder than anyone else in society until they are 80 years old and never "burnout." This lack of "burnout" comes from having an accurate view of human nature. If you don't over romanticize people, then you do not feel great harm and hurt when people let you down. Thank you, PS .

No matter what we look like, they tell us we are not good enough. They cement the deep hole of "not being good enough" within us .The more they make us feel inadequate, the more they succeed. We let them tell us what is wrong with us. We are beautiful. We are strong. We don't need their beauty standards projected upon us. Curly-haired people want straight hair, straight-haired people want curly hair. We are taught to want what we do not have. We are taught to not love what we are blessed to have. We need to stop subscribing to their manufactured standards of beauty. It's not about throwing your personal standards of beauty out the window and not taking care of yourself. On the contrary, it's about not letting their fake standards of beauty infiltrate and take over your own standards. It's about having your own healthy standards that are based on giving your body the nutrition, exercise, and love it needs to feel great and operate at its best potential. So much...

When you change the things you focus on, the things you focus on change. You can look at the 80% of things that are good, or the 20% of the things that are bad. If you focus too much, the 20% could become distorted. Your worldview determines your mindset, which determines your actions, which create your outcomes. If you want different outcomes, change what you’re focused on. The choice is yours.                                                    Advertisement: I would like to buy your property or small business.

The first person walked into a staff meeting today of an up-and-coming, growing organization with a great reputation, only to find out they had lost $200,000 to $300,000 and were in jeopardy of being shut down in less than 3 months. The second person who worked at Target walked in one morning, and over 50% of the employees in his highly successful department had been fired. The third person works at a new non-profit and is working to build a new type of school that has never existed before. They have money in the bank to pay people for the next 3.5 months. Which one of these people lives within an "uncertain" organization?

“Remember that if you don’t prioritize your life someone else will.” ― Greg Mckeown, Our culture glorifies the “rags to riches” stories. The majority of advice, books, and school is about how to become “successful.” But what do you do once you’ve become successful? “You cannot overestimate the unimportance of practically everything.” ― Greg McKeown Today’s definition of success: when the amount of positive opportunities available to you is greater than your capacity to complete said opportunities. Going from having nothing to having too many opportunities is what success means. Building your skill and ability to consistently say “yes” to the right opportunities and “no” to the wrong ones is what will keep you successful and better yet, give you compounding impact on your time & efforts. “Essentialism is not about how to get more things done; it’s about how to get the right things done. It doesn’t mean just doing less for the sake of less either. It is about making the wisest poss...

Three areas to focus on: Common language : How we talk about our work internally and externally. (aka Branding). Habits & rituals : Surfacing & solving problems. Celebrating wins. Meetings. Check in. Etc. (aka Culture).  Tools : Finding the most efficient way to execute our work. (aka Technology & Infrastructure). By investing in any of these areas you will increase the understanding and capacity of your team. Better understanding leads to better relationships and better problem solving. Which leads to a healthier organization. Thank you Patrick Lencioni .
