Psychological safety is not about withholding criticism. It’s about enabling people to speak up without fear.

The goal is not to lower our standards. It’s to replace knee-jerk reactions with open-minded consideration.

All ideas are welcome. Not all views are equally valid.

The attitude that helps most with intense stress is not mindfulness. It’s hope.

In hard times, it’s overwhelming to live only in the present. What brings strength is anticipating a brighter future.

Resilience lies in remembering that today's burdens may be lighter tomorrow.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

The hallmark of expertise is no longer how much you know. It's how well you synthesize.

Information scarcity rewarded knowledge acquisition. Information abundance requires pattern recognition.

It's not enough to collect facts. The future belongs to those who connect dots.

Heavy screen use might create a vicious cycle for young kids.

New data: the more time 3.5-year-olds spent on tablets, the more angry outbursts they had at age 4.5... and the more they used tablets at 5.5.

Digital soothing is not a substitute for teaching emotion regulation.

Simone Biles's stunning performance at the #Paris2024 #Olympics is a valuable reminder that we are not defined by how we stumble but by how we recover. Success is built through resilience & an eagerness to learn👏

Here's a lesson we can all learn from this year's athletes:

The highest purpose of debate is not to persuade. It's to teach and learn.

In productive disagreements, both people gain knowledge on the topic, wisdom on the process, and understanding of each other.

A successful argument sharpens our skills in both reasoning and listening.

One of the most important – and overlooked – factors in team success is alignment on this question:

What does success look like?

Get that right and everything else becomes easier.

Resilience is not about being invulnerable to hardship. It’s about accepting adversity as part of life.

Some struggles are challenges to conquer. Others are weights to carry.

Strength doesn’t come from avoiding setbacks. It comes from refusing to be defined by suffering.

It's long past time to pay teachers more.

When districts gain flexibility to raise teacher salaries, students improve in math & reading. Schools attract better teachers—and they put in more effort.

The quality of our children's education depends on how much we value teachers.

I love the story that Adam Grant tells about Tom Brady when decision makers were considering when to draft him. Grant states “He was dramatically underestimated because his talent skills were assessed and his character skills were not”

[Casey Bardin @bardin44c]

This is well worth the time!

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

People are more open to constructive criticism when it’s clear that you believe in their potential and care about their growth.
