Elon Musk spend his money on buying a social network just to stroke his fragile ego. Dolly Parton spent her money on putting 150 million books in the hands of children. BE LIKE DOLLY.

We hope your Eid al-Fitr is filled with friendship, kindness and love! Eid Mubarak!

[Dr. Jody Carrington • Psychologist @DrJCarrington]

We can’t do it all. No one can. We were never meant to.

The key is to surround yourself with individuals who share the same vision, trust and respect each other, and aren’t afraid to call you on your shit. I’m telling you, sit with the winners. The conversation is different.

If you want to learn about high performance, go visit an elementary school classroom.

I'm serious. They have to read emotions, energy levels, keep 20+ kids aligned, & know how to intervene to keep everyone in a "performance state"

It's a push & pull of focus and recovery.

Yesterday, I received a special ask. That was from a Ukrainian for their country. I believe joy & hope have healing power. They keep you stay grounded in the toughest moments. With the traditional folk music of Punjab, today’s joy and hope dedication is for the people of Ukraine.

It's hard to remember, because we hear mostly from the loudest, most extreme margins of society, but, like, 80 percent of people just want quiet, simple lives with a decent salary and good schools and maybe an hour in front of the TV at night with a nice bowl of ice cream.

[russell lowery-hart @LoweryHart]

A student asked for my best leadership advice today. I'll share it with you: "Assume positive intent." Starting with the assumption that everyone is trying their best will ensure you are doing your best.

Even in error, most people aren't trying to hurt or damage you.

The Science Behind Your Kid’s Meltdown 🧠

If you have a child, the most important job you have as a parent or educator, above all else, is to teach them something called emotional regulation.

To all the teachers out there... stay strong my friends. ❤✊😬

New Zealand's new #COVID19 vaccination campaign.

If you can muster the courage, I’d love you to at least consider a few things that are landing in your favour today. Seek and you will find. What are you grateful for today?
