“Being validated for who we are today is great. But it’s more likely that we can achieve our goals by choosing to become someone who can solve problems that the people we serve need solved”- @sethgodin

“We’re busier than ever at work, but most of the time what we’re busy doing is putting out fires” @shaneparrish

Fires that are caused by problems that we’re not detecting bc we are busy reacting to attack the symptom instead of pausing to take the time to get to the root.

“The four steps to handling mistakes more effectively are as follows:
(1) accept responsibility,
(2) learn from the mistake,
(3) commit to doing better,
and (4) repair the damage as best you can.”

[Silvia Haba @Silvianow]

“There are 3 problems with covering up mistakes.
1. You can’t learn if you ignore mistakes
2. Hiding them becomes a habit
3. The cover-up makes a bad situation worse.

Mistakes also provide rare opportunities to become the tupe of person that you want to be”

"When one worldview dominates your thinking, you'll try to explain every problem you face through that worldview.

Read widely and realize there are many answers."

Healing does not come from blaming others.

Real transformation comes from self-awareness, self-responsibility and connection.

When we do this, we can be aware of the changes that we need to live in coherence.

[Silvia Haba @Silvianow]

Where we serve the world from determines the kind of impact we will have.

Are we serving from a place rage, of fear, of vengeance…?

Or from a place of love, of compassion, of gratefulness, of forgiveness, of connection…?

…to ourselves and to others.

[Silvia Haba @Silvianow]

We can only truly give ourselves to others if, first, we are integrated with ourselves.

"I don't like this kind of mindset of "just think positive thoughts, be optimistic, there is no room for failure, there is no room for doubt..."

It's impossible.

You are a human being.

The difference [between players] is the ability to not stay in those emotions for too long"

Novak Djokovic's entire interview on 60 Minutes is excellent — but this clip of him talking about developing mental toughness is especially great.

“We can’t become what we need to be by remaining what we are”

In toxic cultures, rest is taking your foot off the gas. You're forced to push yourself to exhaustion—burnout is a price to pay for excellence.

In healthy cultures, rest is a supply of fuel. You're expected to take regular reprieves—breaks are vital to gain and sustain energy.

“Sufficiency as a way of being offers us personal freedom & possibility. Rather than scarcity’s myths that tell us […] ‘there’s not enough’ ‘more is better’ & ‘that’s just the way it is’[…] Knowing that there’s enough[for everyone] inspires sharing, collaboration & contribution

Lo que nos causa estrés y el estrés en sí son dos cosas diferentes, y como tal, hay que verlo y tratarlo por separado.

Sobre todo, para completar el ciclo del estrés 💫

Sobre esto te cuento en el último 🌀 coimpacta-ndo, newsletter de @coimpacta

Fall in love with the problem,

not with your solution to the problem.

But we can choose the attitude with which we face them.”

When we talk about “Protecting nature” or “saving the environment”, we must not forget that WE ARE a part of nature.

We cannot be healthy and thrive, if the planet isn’t healthy and thriving.

Happy Earth Day
