You can cry yourself a river because of the adversity you’re facing but when the tears stop, you must then pick yourself up, and build yourself a bridge to get over it. #Compelled
A month after I first met my wife, she flew from Paris to Valencia to visit me. I wasn’t at the airport to pick her up. I’d asked if that was okay and she said yes. I didn’t know it was actually a big deal to her.
2 months later I took the train from Amsterdam to Paris to visit her there for the first time and she commuted an hour by metro just to meet and welcome me at the train station.
I never needed to be told again.
Two years later we got married, moved to Nancy, and she got an internship at Baker & McKenzie Luxembourg. It was cheaper to keep our French apartment and have her commute by train. She returned every evening at 8:11pm. I was at the train station to welcome her every single day.
I kinda agree some men aren’t worth the asking. But men are not mind readers.
Find someone humble enough to hear what you want, and respond. Then show them what love looks like and watch them learn your language.
You have to ask. The right one listens. And then you stop having to.
Jay Bilas shares what accountability really means and why most people get it wrong.
"People think accountability means blame. It doesn't mean blame."
"Accountability means holding yourselves to the standard that you guys deem to be important."
Blame looks backward - accountability looks forward.
"If it's important, then you'll point out to a teammate when he's not doing the right thing, or when he's not doing it to the best of his ability."
"And if one of your teammates points it out to you that, 'Hey, you're not doing what you're supposed to be doing' - you're not gonna say, 'Well, how about you?'"
"You're gonna say, 'You're right,' and you're gonna do it...that's what accountability means."
Accountability isn't about calling people out. It's about calling people up.
It's caring enough to hold each other to the standard.
And then being humble enough to receive it.
That's what great teams do.
Introverts are HIGHLY intuitive, that's why you don't see them around a lot of people, only a few and they are either friends, family members, or a lover. We don't like the attention unless it's from certain people. We only hold deep & long conversations with certain people. We observe heavily!! You have earned a big amount of my trust & very much special to me if I let you in my world, you can only exist there if Let you. I am who I am!
Texans have tolerated the Rose Bowl’s claims of being the best college football setting long enough.
It’s time to build a football stadium in Palo Duro Canyon.
