Boss Vs Leader

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

We all have troublesome emotions as well as the positive ones that bring us inner strength and tranquillity. It’s important for us to be aware of our potential and let this inspire our self-confidence. To look only at the negative side and feel hopeless, is, I think, a wrong view

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

62 years ago. And we’re still racing in the wrong direction. Faster and faster. So many have tried to sound the alarm but our society keeps pressing snooze.
However if we started treating the crisis like a crisis more and more people would become aware and all this could change.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

If you ever feel hopeless just remember that there are 10s of thousands newspapers & TVstations.
If only a few of them started treating the climate- and ecological crisis like a crisis, people would become aware and put pressure on leaders. Then everything could change overnight.
