"When in doubt, just say thank you. There is no downside. Are you honestly worried about showing too much gratitude to the people in your life?"

A key to steady progress is prioritizing goals over moods.

Whether you aim to get in shape, learn the guitar, or write a book, the question is not whether you feel like it today. It's who you want to become tomorrow.

Enthusiasm fluctuates. Consistent action accumulates.

Toxic cultures exploit generosity. Takers impose extra work on givers, and no good deed goes unpunished.

Healthy cultures reward generosity. People protect givers from takers, and cream rises to the top.

Helpfulness is not a weakness to target. It's a strength to safeguard.

How many of us would board airplanes knowing our pilots have not slept in 28hrs?
Or get in ubers knowing our drivers have been awake for the past 24 hours?

WHY IN THE WORLD ARE DOCTORS EXPECTED TO DO THIS?
And do it well? To give the same performance at hour 22 as hour 1?

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

In toxic cultures, you have to burn out to earn a break. Time off is how you recover.

In decent cultures, you take a break when you're low on gas. Time off is how you refuel.

In healthy cultures, you're expected to take regular breaks. Time off is encouraged to sustain energy.
