Over 300 skits and this is still my best joke. I may never top this.

Feeling unsteady is not a sign of instability. It's often a path to progress.

Standing still feels secure, but gaining momentum to move forward requires tilt or sway. Walking is controlled falling.

Being in equilibrium breeds comfort. Feeling off balance leads to growth.

I keep a running list of neurology insults so that I’m ready to go once my hair gets long enough

In supportive relationships, people give feedback without hesitation and receive it with appreciation.

Even when you don’t agree with a suggestion, you’re grateful that they cared enough to offer it.

A relationship that could be jeopardized by the truth is based on a lie.

‘He charged into the room, pert testicles bouncing gaily. I saw a scar & wondered if he’d had a vasectomy. He opened his plump lips, full of promise but annoying words came out...something about a football match’

From afar, we admire talent. Up close, what counts most is character.

You can impress people with your skills, but you earn their trust by standing for something greater than yourself.

There is no higher achievement than treating others kindly and living with integrity.

This twitter-piece on the covid wars in human hospitals is an incredible reflection of the current status.

There’s a ghost on the corner of 3rd and Broadway

I noticed him the other day, as I made a left turn at the light.

He wasn’t there a week ago.

He must be new.

Nobody I recognize, but then again, his face is blurry and indistinct.

I look at him now, and I drive past. 1/

A company isn't a family. Parents don't fire their kids for low performance or furlough them in hard times.

A better vision for a workplace is a community—a place where people bond around shared values, feel valued as human beings, and have a voice in decisions that affect them.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Burnout is being overwhelmed by work. Boreout is being underwhelmed by work.

Data: having too much to do is exhausting, but having too little to do is demoralizing. In idle time, motivation wanes.

Sustaining energy depends on balancing what's meaningful with what's manageable.

The sexual abuse of children is rarely perpetrated by strangers, nor does it tend to be unplanned. But too many people still believe such unhelpful myths, while ignoring real risks. https://t.co/1C3mu23eau
